Results for tag: "Calcined Shale"

Calcined Shale is a type of sedimentary rock used in the Oil and Gas Exploration and Production industry. It is heated to high temperatures to remove moisture and organic matter, resulting in a lightweight material with a high surface area. This material is used as a proppant in hydraulic fracturing operations, helping to keep fractures open and allowing oil and gas to flow more freely. Calcined Shale is also used as a drilling fluid additive, helping to reduce torque and drag and improve wellbore stability. The Calcined Shale market is driven by the increasing demand for oil and gas, as well as the need for more efficient and cost-effective exploration and production methods. The market is expected to grow in the coming years, as more oil and gas companies look to increase their production and reduce their costs. Some of the major companies in the Calcined Shale market include Halliburton, Schlumberger, Baker Hughes, Weatherford International, and Superior Proppants. Show Less Read more
