ball-out: to plug open perforations by using ball sealers.

ball sealers: balls made of nylon, hard rubber, or both and used to shut off perforations through which excessive fluid is being lost.

- Ball sealers are a well-established technology for fluid diversion during fracture stimulation. As part of the Exxon license in 2005, Halliburton has performed a process called RapidFrac-MZSM perforating service.* This process uses select-fire conventional perforating guns that remain in the casing during fracturing operations. As each fracturing treatment is completed, ball sealers are pumped to temporarily plug the open perforations. When the treatment pressure rises to indicate the perforations are effectively plugged, the next interval is perforated and the next interval treatment is placed with no shutdown of pumping operations.
