Black Ultra™ proppants are available in 16/30, 20/40, 30/50 and 40/70 mesh sizes. These resin coated proppants utilize an advanced resin system, which bonds at low temperatures without the use of a consolidation aid for proppant flowback control.
Fracture treatments:
At closure stress up to:
At bottom-hole static temperatures* from:
*Does not require low temperature consolidation aid down to recommended temperatures.
