The first chapter of the report is devoted to the characterization of the current condition of the world market of proppants. This section presents data on the world's major producers of proppants, volumes of the production in different countries around the world in 2000-2009 and prices for some products.

In the second chapter data on the types of and quality requirements for proppants are presented.

The third chapter is devoted to analysis of production of proppants. It presents data on volumes of production of proppants in Russia in 2000-2010, describes current position of company-producers of proppants, including data on raw material base, characteristics of the products, volumes and destinations of supplies.

In the fourth chapter of the report we analyzed the foreign trade operations of Russian companies in proppants. It presents data on volumes of the supplies in kind and in money terms, the main exporters and importers of the products, estimates regional pattern of the supply.

In the fifth chapter price analysis is conducted: the data on changes in current prices on proppants are give, as well as the dynamics of changes in export and import prices on the products in 2005-2010.

The sixth chapter is devoted to estimation of domestic consumption of proppants in Russia. This chapter shows the supply-demand balance of proppants in 2000-2010, estimation of regional and sectoral structure of the consumption. Also it provides information on volumes of shipments of this product to the greatest Russian consumers by railway. The greatest Russian company-consumers of proppants are described.

The seventh and final chapter of the report describes the existing market trends of proppants and provides forecast of production and consumption of this product in Russia for the period up to 2015.

Annexes to the report present contact details for the leading Russian manufacturers of proppants and the largest consumers of the products.
