A slowdown in Frac Sand use?

The frac sand mining operations service hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, operations in oil and gas wells and the demand for the sand is weakening in the booming Permian until new pipelines start coming online closer to mid-2019. Many companies continue to drill new wells while delaying the fracking operations and leaving the wells uncompleted for now.

A potential slowdown in Colorado frac activities due to the November prop 112 Vote against fracking in the State Is also something to consider.
