Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention include a method and system for blending multi-component granular compositions such as proppant used in hydraulic fracturing in well drilling. The system includes the control and management of an on-site storage system for each of the components, regulating the delivery of specified quantities of each component to a well site, and coordinating the flow of materials into and out of the blender.

Claim (Index 28):
The management system according to  claim 26 , further comprising computer program instructions for communicating with a delivery system, the instructions for communicating with a delivery system executable to perform steps comprising:\n receiving and processing a truck inventory, wherein the truck inventory comprises a listing of tractor trailers for delivering the ingredient from the remote storage location to the well site; receiving and processing information on a tractor trailer ingredient manifest and submitting the processed information to the monitoring system and the management system; monitoring information on the level, the mass or the amount of the one or more ingredients contained in each tractor trailer and submitting the monitored information to the monitoring system and the storage management system; monitoring information on the duration of time for each tractor trailer to travel from the remote storage facility to the well site and submitting the monitored information to the monitoring system and the management system; monitoring information on the duration of time for delivering the solid granular material from a tractor trailer into a storage container and submitting the monitored information to the monitoring system and the management system; processing a request from the monitoring system to alter the tractor trailer list; processing a notification of delivery completion from the management system and adjusting the truck inventory; and processing a request from the management system to select a tractor trailer from the truck inventory used for delivering the ingredient from the remote storage location to the well site, wherein the selection is dependent on at least one of available driver hours, current location of the tractor trailer, and maintenance status of the tractor trailer.
