Midium Density Ceramsite Proppant is a specially engineered granular material used in hydraulic fracturing (fracking) to keep fractures in oil and gas reservoirs open, thereby enhancing hydrocarbon flow. It is manufactured from bauxite, kaolin, or other aluminosilicate materials, which are sintered at high temperatures to form strong, spherical particles. With a typical density of around 1.35–1.45 g/cm³, midium density proppants strike a balance between lightweight and high-density grades, offering both good strength and manageable pumping performance. Their spherical shape and smooth surface improve fluid conductivity, reduce fracture embedment, and enhance hydrocarbon recovery efficiency.
Compared with lightweight proppants (such as natural sand), midium density ceramsite proppants provide higher compressive strength and better resistance to crushing, making them suitable for medium- to deep-depth wells with moderate closure stresses. They are widely used in shale gas, tight oil, and unconventional reservoirs, where maintaining fracture conductivity under higher pressures is critical. Their cost-performance balance makes them a preferred choice for operators seeking improved recovery without the expense of ultra-high-strength proppants.
In 2024, global midium density ceramsite proppants production reached approximately 74.70 k tons, with an average global market price of around US$ 2325 per ton. And global midium density ceramsite proppants production capacity reached approximately 120 k tons. The average gross margin in this industry reached 20.52%.
Upstream: The medium density ceramsite proppant industry relies heavily on raw materials such as bauxite, kaolin, and clay, which are processed through crushing, granulation, and high-temperature sintering to form spherical ceramic particles with high strength and thermal stability. Additives such as binding agents and flux materials are also critical for optimizing density and conductivity. Representative upstream suppliers include China Mineral Processing (bauxite and kaolin), Imerys (industrial minerals), and Almatis (specialty alumina products). Raw material availability, energy costs, and sintering technology advancements are key factors influencing upstream supply stability and production costs.
Downstream: Medium density ceramsite proppants are primarily consumed in the oil and gas industry for hydraulic fracturing, where they enhance permeability by keeping fractures open under high closure stress. Compared to lightweight sand and high-density ceramic proppants, medium density grades balance conductivity and cost, making them suitable for deep and mid-depth wells. Representative downstream users include Halliburton (oilfield services), Schlumberger (energy technology and fracking solutions), and CNPC (China National Petroleum Corporation). With the expansion of shale gas, tight oil, and unconventional energy resources, downstream demand is pushing the industry toward proppants with improved conductivity, cost efficiency, and environmental performance.
