Fracturing

Trican has focused its fracturing research on producing fracturing technologies that place proppant as designed, with little or no damage to the formation. Some of our developments are listed below.

Quantum LP System
Gelled Hydrocarbon HP System
On-the-Fly Frac Systems
New Water Breaker Technology
Horizontal Fracturing
Tight Gas Fracturing Techniques
Enhanced Emulsified CO₂ Frac
Liquid CO₂ Fracturing
Gel-Pac-Frac
ULW Proppant
