Fracking Calculations

Back-of-the-envelope calculations. When CLR posts frack data for #31670 we can check how well the calculations worked out. At 200,000 pounds/stage, it works out to about 56 stages. 
  • Water weighs 8. 3454 pounds
  • 17.262 million gallons x 8.3454 pounds = 144.06 million lbs of water
  • 91.4% of "what" = 144.06 million lbs of water
  • Total weight of fracking fluid weighed: 157.615 million lbs
7.14% of 157.615 million lbs = 11.25 million lbs of sand
