Abstract
There is described a new and improved method of fracturing an underground stratigraphic formation penetrated by a well bore including the steps of pumping a stream of liquified gas into the formation to cause the fracturing thereof and then introducing proppants directly into the stream of liquified gas for injection of the proppants into the fractures. Prior to introducing the proppants into the liquid gas stream, they are cooled and pressurized to the storage temperature and pressure of the liquified gas.
