Saint-Gobain Proppants ENGINEERING TOMORROW’S SOLUTIONS TODAY

Saint-Gobain Proppants understands what’s riding on every well you drill. For more than 40 years, we’ve been manufacturing high-quality, high-performance

ceramic proppants that not only meet, but exceed, rigorous downhole performance requirements — and we back up our commitment to quality products with competitive pricing and excellent service.

Our products include VersaLite®, our newest line of low-density, lightweight proppants, as well as industry standards VersaProp®, InterProp® and Sintered Bauxite. All Saint-Gobain products use high-quality bauxite, resulting in strong, durable proppants that can withstand the toughest downhole environments. Saint-Gobain Proppants have contributed to successful hydraulic fracturing in oil and gas wells around the globe, helping to increase yields from existing wells and improve the industry’s ability to effectively tap new formations.

Proppants have a tough job. They must retain fracture geometry and provide sustainable conductivity to the wellbore at application conditions. How well they do their job depends on the application environment.

Saint-Gobain has made it standard practice to track the performance of our proppants in wells across the United States. By doing so, we are able to confirm and verify for customers that the investment in our high-quality, high-performance proppants has enabled operators to maximize their BOE and their proppant ROI.

Saint-Gobain’s Well Worth It Experience™ captures these results with a multitude of case studies and interactive tools. Visit proppants.saint-gobain.com for more details.

Only Some Proppants Are Well Worth It™ !

Saint-Gobain Proppants Well Worth It™

Porosity formation is inevitable when manufacturing ceramic proppants — a fact of life that proppant suppliers try to minimize when manufacturing conventional ceramics. Saint-Gobain Proppants, however, has developed a way to precisely control the size and placement of these pores to create lower density proppants that retain high conductivity under high stress conditions, delivering high-end performance at a very competitive price. We call the resulting lightweight proppants VersaLite®.

Lightweight Proppants — Retain high conductivity under high stress conditions• Though the bulk density approaches that of sand- or clay-based ceramics,

Lightweight Proppants maintain most of the strength and conductivity endurance of our other bauxite-based proppants

• This precision engineering presents a stark contrast to the random distribution of sometimes very large pores in typical low density ceramics, which compromise crush resistance and ultimately affect conductivity performance

Lightweight Proppants

VersaProp® — Greater strength, conductivity and productivity• Made from an intermediate bauxite ore that is stronger than similarly priced

economy lightweight ceramics (ELWC) • Maintains its patented median particle diameter (MPD), even under tremendous downhole stress

• Delivers higher conductivity per dollar than any other ceramic proppant over a wide range of stresses

InterProp® — The right combination of performance and value• Delivers solid, reliable performance in a cost-effective intermediate-

strength proppant• Particularly well suited to oil wells with low to moderate permeability,

delivering excellent conductivity
