 PROFILE
CARBO Ceramics' proppants (tiny ceramic beads) are a welcome release for natural gas and oil well operators. After a well is hydraulically fractured, proppants are used to create a permeable channel through which natural gas and oil flow from the formation to the surface. Some of the company's products compete against sand-based proppants. CARBO Ceramics' customers include pressure-pumping service companies and well owners worldwide. The company's three top customers -- BJ Services, Schlumberger, and Halliburton -- together account for nearly 80% of sales. The US accounts for more than 60% of sales. Chairman William Morris owns about 28% of CARBO Ceramics.
