Post treatment proppant flowback is a leading cause of well production decline

Post treatment proppant flowback is a leading cause of well production decline, equipment damage, and well shut-ins for repairs. Proppant flowback can also cause loss of near wellbore conductivity and reduced connectivity to the reservoir.
Maide Ceramics curable resin coated proppant eliminate proppant flowback by forming a consolidated proppant pack in the fracture. This grain-to-grain bonding occurs under a combination of reservoir temperature and closure stress. This Stress Bond technology leads to increased proppant pack integrity and well production compared to uncoated and precured resin coated proppants.
