The rise in horizontal drilling, multi-well pads, and high-intensity completions across the Lower 48 unconventional plays, led to a record level of proppant demand in 2018. Proppant is a key ingredient used during the hydraulic fracturing process to prevent fractures from closing. The most common proppant today is raw frac sand, but there here are different types of proppant including ceramic, resin coated, and raw frac sand.
