Neutral wettability. Virtually zero capillary forces

Watch to see how CARBO's RPM Technology - neutral wettability relative permeability modification technology-  increases production by preventing trapped water based fluids reducing pressure droppes leading to increased EUR. CARBO's RPM Technology can be added to any CARBO Proppant. 

Increase production and recovery by freeing your fracture of water and water-based fluids with proppant-delivered flow enhancement technology.

Develop integrated solutions to optimize well performance and optimize returns with CARBO's innovative fracture and proppant technologies. 

For 70 years proppant technology has primarily consisted of uncoated frack sands, resin-coated proppant and ceramic proppant. These three tiers of proppant have served, and continue to serve, as the workhorse for propping open hydraulic fractures and have allowed for the successful development of many otherwise uneconomic reservoirs.

Advances in engineering have helped to expand the role of proppants from merely propping the fracture open to performing myriad actions downhole. Harts E&P, September 2016
