The activity generating the emissions is hydraulic fluid production, for geological stimulation. The reference product is hydraulic fracturing fluid. "hydraulic fracturing fluid" is a chemical product. It is modelled with water content of 98% - 99.5% and chemical additives 0.5-2%. The process includes water consumption, chemical additives inputs and emissions to air and water. It is used to perform a a hydraulic fracturing by injecting only pure water at high pressure into the rock, as often done for Enhanced Geothermal Systems. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
