6.8.3 Russian Proppants Volume Forecast 2014-2024
Table 6.24 shows figures for visiongain’s volume forecast for the Russian proppants market
between 2014 and 2024. Figure 6.39 displays visiongain’s forecast for volume of proppant sold in
the Russian market during this time. Both indicate frac sand’s position as the dominant proppant
throughout the forecast period, in terms of volume sold. Despite frac sand’s dominance throughout
the forecast, volumes of ceramic proppant and resin coated sand increase in the latter portion of
the forecast period due to the expansion of most unconventional oil and gas activities after 2020.

8. Expert Opinion
8.1 OPF Enterprises, LLC
Bryan Geary is the President of OPF (On the Plant Floor) Enterprises. Bryan has 25 years of
experience in ceramics and different manufacturing roles. These include laboratory manager,
production supervisor, production manager, plant manager and director of manufacturing. After 20
years of working with structural ceramics, where he gathered expertise from around the world in
ceramic technologies, materials, and processing, Bryan began working in the field of ceramic
proppants.
OPF has several divisions, offering expertise in consulting, ceramic technology and equipment.
OPF’s consulting services include general business, manufacturing plant (including site selection
and start-ups), and industry specific consulting (including ceramic manufacturing). Their ceramic
division includes a ceramic development and testing lab, where they can assist with ceramic
formulations, raw material selection, process design, and plant layouts. Their knowledge base of
ceramics is broad, allowing OPF Enterprises to offer manufacturing support for ceramic tile, brick,
sanitary ware, advanced technical ceramics, and proppants.
Visiongain interviewed Bryan Geary in May 2014 and would like to thank him for his time and
expertise.
8.1.1 Links Between Ceramics and Unconventional Oil and Gas
Visiongain: You have quite a history of working with ceramics in various sorts. How have
you carried that over to the proppants industry?
Bryan Geary (BG): I was working for Dal Tile in Dallas, Texas at the time, when I was recruited by
a start up that initially formed out of Rice University in Houston. This firm is called Oxane Materials.
They had been working on R&D in a few different advanced ceramic technologies before I came
along. I came on board to assist with getting them into the manufacturing of ceramic proppants. As
Director of Manufacturing for that company, my job was to find a place to build a manufacturing
operation and get them into high quality production as timely as possible.
Visiongain: And moving from Oxane Materials, now you have started OPF Enterprises?
BG: Yes, four years ago together with business partner Carl Sorrell, I started OPF Enterprises. I’ve
been an entrepreneur for years, owning a few other businesses, so it was a natural evolution for
