Wet Form Segment is Estimated to be the Fastest Growing in the Saudi Arabia Silica Sand Market
Based on form, wet silica sand is expected to grow at the fastest rate between 2024-2032 in the Saudi Arabia silica sand market owing to its surging demand in the construction and glass production application areas.
Frac sand is a quartz sand of high purity with round grains which is durable and serves as a crush-resistant substance in the oil and gas industries. Frac sand is used in hydraulic fracturing ("fracking"), which is where it gets its name from. It is a completion technique used by oil and gas companies to produce natural gas, natural gas liquids, and oil from unconventional, low permeability reservoirs such as shale. It is used to release natural gas, oil, and natural gas liquids from the pores on rocks.
Glass Industry is the Dominating Application Segment of Silica Sand in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia is recognized for abundant high-grade silica sand deposits located around 1,000 km from the Jeddah industrial city, the main glass manufacturing centre in the country. Glass industry is expected to hold a share of 27.7% in Saudi Arabia silica sand market in 2032.
Silica Sand: Market Segmentation
Silica sand, also known as quartz sand, comprises two main elements, silicon and oxygen. Silica sand is formulated, when through water and air, quartz is crumbled into tiny granules. It comes in different shades, usually white or colourless, based on the rock residues and the other minerals that make up the resource. Sand material should comprise 95% silicon dioxide and only about 0.6% iron oxide for it to be considered silica sand; otherwise, it is regarded as regular sand. Some of the benefits of silica sand include its worldwide availability, high melting point, high compression strength, and durability, appropriate particle distribution and size, and high elasticity.
