Abstract

A proppant particle for use in a hydrocarbon production operation is disclosed. The proppant particle has porous structure, the porous structure being formed of any of a plurality of carbon nanofibres or tubes synthesized on the surface of a core, and an alumina spinel based porous particle. The use of either of these types of material for a porous structure gives a lightweight proppant particle with adequate strength. This means that less water and/or chemicals are required to disperse the proppant particles during an operation such as fracking.
