Abstract

Un mode de réalisation conforme à la présente invention est un agent de soutènement à haute résistance qui comprend une pastille électrofondue. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, un agent de soutènement à haute résistance comprend une pastille sensiblement solide et sensiblement sphérique obtenue par électrofusion dau moins un oxyde métallique. On propose également un procédé de fabrication dun agent de soutènement, ce procédé comprenant la fusion dau moins un oxyde métallique dans un four à arc électrique, le versement de loxyde métallique fondu de manière à créer un courant de versement et la séparation du courant de versement pour former au moins une pastille électrofondue. On propose également un procédé de fracturation de formations souterraines, ce procédé comprenant linjection dun fluide qui contient au moins une pastille électrofondue.
