Abstract

This document provides testing procedures for evaluating proppants used in hydraulic fracturing and gravel packing operations. NOTE Proppants mentioned in this document refer to sand, ceramic, resin-coated, gravel packing proppants, and other materials used for hydraulic fracturing and gravel packing operations. This document supplements API RP 19D, 2nd edition (2021), the requirements of which are applicable with the exceptions specified in this document. This document provides consistent methodology for testing performed on hydraulic fracturing and/or gravel packing proppants. It is not intended for use in obtaining absolute values of proppant pack conductivities under downhole reservoir conditions.
