Description

kRT

Hexion’s kRT™ proppants are a curable resin coated sand available in 16/30, 20/40, 30/50, 40/70, and 100 mesh sizes. kRT proppants are an economical resin coated sand that control proppant flowback in reservoirs down to 110˚F and enhance conductivity.

Typical Applications

Fracture treatments:    

  • At closure stress up to 10,000 psi [69 MPa] 
  • At bottom-hole static temperatures from 130 - 400°F [54 - 204°C]

Technical Advantages and Benefits

  • Helps prevent proppant flowback and rearrangement
  • Reduces proppant fines generation and migration
  • Reduces dust generation
  • Stress Bond™ technology helps prevent wellbore consolidation
