At G&H Div, we understand that every well completion is unique—and so are the tools it requires. When it comes to frac plugs, selecting the right type can make or break your operation’s efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and long-term performance.

Whether you're working in a high-pressure shale play or a low-temperature formation, understanding the differences between composite frac plug, dissolvable frac plug, and hybrid frac plug options is key to optimizing your strategy.

Let’s break it down.

What Are Frac Plugs and Why Do They Matter?

Frac plugs are temporary downhole barriers used during hydraulic fracturing to isolate zones and direct pressure where it's needed. They’re essential for multi-stage completions and play a major role in well integrity and production outcomes.

At G&H Div, we offer a full suite of frac plug solutions tailored to your formation, timeline, and budget.

Composite Frac Plug: Tough, Reliable, Proven

The Composite frac plugis a workhorse in the industry. Made primarily of composite materials, it’s designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures while being easy to drill out post-frac.

Benefits of Composite Frac Plugs:

  • 🛠️ High-strength design for demanding environments

  • 🧹 Quick and clean drill-out with minimal debris

  • 💰 Cost-effective for large-scale operations

  • 🔄 Compatible with most casing sizes and well profiles

G&H Div’s composite frac plugs are trusted by operators across North America for their durability and performance.

Dissolvable Frac Plug: No Drill-Out, No Hassle

The Dissolvable frac plugis ideal for formations where drill-out is risky, costly, or simply not feasible. These plugs dissolve naturally in well fluids over time, eliminating the need for intervention.

Why Choose Dissolvable Frac Plugs?

  • 🧪 No post-frac drill-out required

  • ⏱️ Saves time and reduces operational costs

  • 🌍 Environmentally friendly with fewer surface impacts

  • 🔍 Great for extended-reach or horizontal wells

G&H Div’s dissolvable frac plugs are engineered to dissolve predictably and safely, giving you peace of mind and operational flexibility.

Hybrid Frac Plug: The Best of Both Worlds

Can’t decide between composite and dissolvable? The Hybrid frac plugcombines the strength of composite materials with dissolvable elements for a balanced solution.

Features of Hybrid Frac Plugs:

  • ⚙️ Composite body with dissolvable components

  • 🔄 Partial drill-out with reduced debris

  • 🧠 Smart design for complex completions

  • 💡 Ideal for wells with mixed zone requirements

G&H Div’s hybrid frac plugs are perfect for operators who need versatility without compromising performance.

How to Choose the Right Plug for Your Well

Every well is different, and choosing the right frac plug depends on several factors:

  • Formation temperature and pressure

  • Completion design and zone count

  • Budget and operational timeline

  • Drill-out capabilities and risk tolerance

At G&H Div, we work closely with operators to match the right plug to the right job. Our technical team is here to guide you through selection, deployment, and post-frac planning.
