Talk to 99.9% of people in the industry and they'll tell you there is no "k".

Look at the websites for any of the big companies, Halliburton, Schlumberger, Trican, Calfrac, and the only places you'll see a "k" is as a minor mention (usually to say "yeah, it's the same thing as fracing), or as a brand name for a proprietary product. When actually talking about the process in a technical document the "k" isn't used.

I suppose this should go in the "Grinds my gears" thread, but it came up here, so I shall rant here.

Using the word fracking is way more common in America as well, while fracing rules in Canada.
