Abstract:
A method of treating a subterranean formation penetrated by a wellbore comprises: introducing into the subterranean formation a treatment fluid comprising a carbonate producing agent, urea, and a cation source; allowing a carbonate precipitate to form, the carbonate precipitate comprising a cation from the cation source and having a water solubility of less than about 0.1 g/100 mL at 25° C. and atmospheric pressure; and reducing or substantially preventing the passage of formation particles from the subterranean formation into the wellbore while allowing passage of formation fluids from the subterranean formation into the wellbore.

Abstract:
Cysteine synthase or O-Acetyl-L-Serine Sulfhydrylase enzymes, such as those derived from the Aeropyrum pernix bacterium, may be used in additive compositions, fluid compositions, and methods for decreasing or removing hydrogen sulfide from recovered downhole fluids and/or the subterranean reservoir wellbore from which the downhole fluid was recovered. The fluid composition may include at least one cysteine synthase enzyme and a base fluid, such as a drilling fluid, a servicing fluid, a production fluid, a completion fluid, an injection fluid, a refinery fluids, and combinations thereof.

Abstract:
Anionic polysaccharide polymers, derived from kelp may be used in additive compositions, and fluid compositions for viscosifying a base fluid, such as an aqueous-based fluid, a non-aqueous based fluid, and combinations thereof. In a non-limiting embodiment, a breaker additive may be used to break the viscosity of the viscosified fluid composition, which may have or include a breaker agent to break the viscosified fluid composition.
