RCP curing and compressive strength tester

API RP 60

Description

The RCP tester, under computer control, assesses both unconfined and triaxial compressive strengths of curable resin-coated proppants, either with or without fracturing fluid, under downhole stress and temperature conditions. Additionally, the system allows for the curing of resin-coated proppant packs at elevated temperatures and varying closure stresses before undertaking a uniaxial compressive strength test. The setup includes a comprehensive range of components: a curing cell, a triaxial cell, a load frame and a confining pressure intensifier. Compressive strength data serves as an indicator of the bonding capability of curable resin-coated proppants, as well as their resilience against flowback. The system also enables studies on the impact of temperature and curing kinetics on the consolidation strength and stability of resin-coated proppants.
