10th Annual

- April 9, 2025
This one-day event was designed to provide an update on forecasts, trends, research, and regulatory developments for the frac sand industry. It brought together frac sand and proppant suppliers, exploration companies, oil and gas companies, well completion companies, producers, rail companies, truckers, barge operators, and those who offer technology solutions to support a more efficient supply chain.
The event was limited to 150 attendees, allowing participants to network with the speakers and fellow attendees, building and strengthening relationships with industry leaders. Those who did not register in time missed a unique opportunity.
