Coated And Cured Proppants

View page
US Patent:
20130065800, Mar 14, 2013
Filed:
Sep 25, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/626055
Inventors:
Robert Ray McDaniel - Cypress TX, US
Avis Lloyd McCrary - Montgomery TX, US
Spyridon Monastiriotis - Dallas TX, US
Ralph Edward Barthel - Wake Forest NC, US
International Classification:
C09K 8/80
B05D 7/24
B05D 3/00
US Classification:
507219, 427220, 427214
Abstract:
Solid proppants are coated with a coating that exhibits the handling characteristics of a pre-cured coating while also exhibiting the ability to form particle-to-particle bonds at the elevated temperatures and pressures within a wellbore. The coating includes a substantially homogeneous mixture of (i) at least one isocyanate component having at least 2 isocyanate groups, and (ii) a curing agent comprising a monofunctional alcohol, amine or amide. The coating process can be performed with short cycle times, e.g., less than about 4 minutes, and still produce a dry, free-flowing, coated proppant that exhibits low dust characteristics during pneumatic handling but also proppant consolidation downhole for reduced washout and good conductivity. Such proppants also form good unconfined compressive strength without use of an bond activator, are substantially unaffected in bond formation characteristics under downhole conditions despite prior heat exposure, and are resistant to leaching with hot water.

Proppant With Enhanced Interparticle Bonding

View page
US Patent:
20210403801, Dec 30, 2021
Filed:
Jul 9, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/371974
Inventors:
- Radnor PA, US
Robert Ray McDaniel - Cypress TX, US
Avis Lloyd McCrary - Montgomery TX, US
Ralph Edward Barthel - Wake Forest NC, US
International Classification:
C09K 8/80
C09K 8/68
Abstract:
Polymer-coated proppants for hydraulic fracturing of oil and gas wells have an outer layer portion that comprises an organofunctional coupling agent, preferably an organofunctional silane coupling agent. The use of an organofunctional silane coupling agent in the outer layer portion of the proppant coating is preferably chosen to expose functionalities that will be reactive towards similar functionalities of adjacent and similarly coated proppants so that, when introduced downhole, these proppants form interparticle bonds at the temperatures and crack closure pressures found downhole in fractured strata. Such enhanced interparticle bonding helps keep the proppant in the fracture and maintains conductivity with reduced flowback. The invention also helps proppants designed for low temperature well to bond more firmly and allows proppants designed for high temperature wells to bond well even at lower downhole temperatures, thereby extending their useful range.

US Patent:
20200115627, Apr 16, 2020
Filed:
Dec 13, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/713436
Inventors:
- RADNOR PA, US
Kerry Drake - Red Hill PA, US
Spyridon Monastiriotis - Houston TX, US
Ralph Barthel - Magnolia TX, US
International Classification:
C09K 8/80
E21B 43/267
Abstract:
Treatment methods for coated or uncoated proppants that can, among other things, control fugitive dust during typical handling procedures with typical transport equipment and/or add functional features to the proppant solid are disclosed herein.

Proppant With Enhanced Interparticle Bonding

Inventors:
- RADNOR PA, US

Proppant With Polyurea-Type Coating

View page
US Patent:
20170275523, Sep 28, 2017
Filed:
Nov 7, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/345283
Inventors:
- Radnor PA, US
Robert Ray McDaniel - Cypress TX, US
Ralph Edward Barthel - Wake Forest NC, US
Spyridon Monastiriotis - Dallas TX, US
International Classification:
C09K 8/80
Abstract:
Proppants for hydraulic fracturing of oil and gas wells are coated with a polyurea-type coating. In a preferred embodiment, the polyurea-type coating is formed by contacting a polymeric isocyanate with an amount of water a blowing catalyst at a rate and quantity sufficient to generate a reactive amine in situ on the outer surface of the proppant which thereby reacts with unconverted polymeric isocyanate to form a thin polyurea-type surface coating that is substantially solid and lacks foam or substantial porosity. Alternatively, the polyurea-type can he produed by selecting reactive amine compounds and isocyanates to develop the coated proppant. The coated proppants retain the discrete, free-flowing character of the original core solids but with the beneficial effects of the polyurea-type coating of the present invention.
