ISO 13503-2:2006, Petroleum and natural gas industries - Completion fluids and materials - Part 2: Measurement of properties of proppants used in hydraulic fracturing and gravel-packing operations

ISO 13503-2:2006 provides standard testing procedures for evaluating proppants used in hydraulic fracturing and gravel-packing operations.

"Proppants" mentioned henceforth in ISO 13503-2:2006 refer to sand, ceramic media, resin-coated proppants, gravel-packing media and other materials used for hydraulic fracturing and gravel-packing operations.

The objective of ISO 13503-2:2006 is to provide a consistent methodology for testing performed on hydraulic fracturing and/or gravel-packing proppants.
