The invention discloses a
petroleum propping agent with ultra-
low density and high strength. The
petroleum propping agent is prepared by uniformly mixing 30 to 50 weight percent of white mud, 30 to 50 weight percent of kaolin and 10 to 20 weight percent of
feldspar serving as raw materials, adding a reinforcing agent such as aluminum
sol,
silicon sol or
aluminum phosphate sol and the like in an amount which is 2 to 5 percent of the total weight of the three raw materials and performing wet ball milling,
superfine grinding,
spray drying, rolling forming,
drying, screening and high-temperature
sintering. The
petroleum propping agent with ultra-
low density and high strength has the characteristics of ultra-low
apparent density, high strength and low crushing rate, so the propping agent has good flow
conductivity, can quickly fill fractures in
hydraulic fracturing, effectively props the fractures all the time after the
hydraulic fracturing is finished, prevents reclosing of the fractures,enables the stratum fluid to enter the fractures in a linear mode, improves the
hydraulic fracturing effect, and is favorable for petroleum yield increment. Meanwhile, the local resources can be fully utilized as raw materials for preparation so as to reduce the manufacturing cost of the propping agent.
