<p>[QUOTE="BuffaloCreek, post: 8236884, member: 228779"]They also make up the difference in shrinkage. At the end of a well frac there would be 2-3 TRAILER LOADS of sand on the ground and on the sand movers, and I unloaded at some fracs where the sand between the movers was literally 5-6 feet deep in places.. Some guy's hose would rupture, he's in the truck dinking around, and sand goes everywhere. The sand coordinator misjudges the room he has left and soon you're blowing sand out of the top of the mover. If you're talking ceramic or coated sand, that's a boatload of money they save, way more than enough to put up with a little difference in haul weight in a pneumatic vs a sand box.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
