About Fracking Chemicals and Fluids
Fracking chemicals and fluids find their application in the fracturing technique, commonly known as hydraulic fracturing. Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is a technique of well stimulation in which fluids (typically water mixed with sand and chemicals) are injected at high pressure into a well to create minor fractures in the deep rock foundations to allow natural gas, petroleum, and brine to move toward the well from deep reserves. The technique of fracking is commonly applied to wells for shale gas and oil recovery. Such stimulation is usually carried out once during the productive life of the well, and it helps in the elimination of fluids (gas, oil), increasing the productivity of the well. The hydraulic fracturing technique is used because field production is declining with time. The composition of fracking chemicals and fluids varies depending on the type of fracturing used, the conditions of the specific well being fractured, and the characteristics of water. A typical fracture treatment uses between three and 12 chemical additives.
TechNavio's analysts forecast the Fracking Chemicals and Fluids Market in the US to grow at a CAGR of 8.7 percent over the period 2013-2018.
