That’s what Ross Craft of Fort Worth’s Approach Resources said at a natural gas conference yesterday, according to the Star-T.
He’s talking about the sand that’s necessary for the ‘fracking’ process, by which sand and chemicals and water and (presumably) 11 secret herbs and spices are pumped into the ground to help get the natural gas out. His comments underline just how much is necessary for the process:
A single well might require a few million pounds of sand for “fracking.”
So sand has to be transported in from elsewhere? Yes.
