Low Density Ceramic Proppant Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Large Mesh, Small Mesh), By Application (Oil & Gas, Construction, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032
KEY INDUSTRY INSIGHTS
Proppants are solid materials that are intended to keep induced hydraulic fracture open during the fracturing process. These materials are generally sand, treated sand and artificially manufactured ceramic materials. Proppants are generally added to the fracking fluid. It can vary in composition depending upon the fracturing type. Low density ceramic proppants are generally used for moderate depth natural gas wells and other hydraulic fracturing processes. These proppants have high conductivity which makes it appropriate for many application areas.
Increasing demand from operators of hydraulic fracturing for low density ceramic proppants for closely spaced wells is likely to boost the demand for these proppants. The increasing demand from end-use sectors is driving the demand for natural gas, oil and petroleum which substantially is increasing the demand for low-density ceramic proppants. Additionally, the lower cost of the proppants as compare to resin-coated sand shall create positive impact on the market.
However, the exploration of new hydraulic wells is relatively expensive than already established crude oil production. This can hamper the market growth.
Key Market Driver -
Increasing demand from oil & gas sector.
Key Market Restraint -
High cost of hydraulic exploration.
