Ceramic tracing proppant
The present invention relates to a ceramic tracing proppant, and belongs to the field of oil and gas exploitation aids. The ceramic tracing proppant of the present invention is mainly prepared from a neutron absorbing material and the following raw materials in parts by weight: 60-90 parts of bauxite, 30-90 parts of kaolin, and 1-5 parts of fluorite. The ceramic tracing proppant of the present invention has a very high compressive strength under a relatively low density, can effectively prop formation cracks, ensure a fracturing effect and provide an efficient channel for oil and gas output, and has a wide raw material source and a relatively low cost. In addition, the neutron absorbing material is used and fused with an existing neutron logging technology, such that permanent tracing can be achieved under non-radioactive conditions, and the crack height can be effectively, accurately, and quantitatively determined.
