摘要:
The current invention provides an improved permeable cement composition for formation of downhole sand screens. The improved composition includes an effective amount of a surfactant. Addition of the surfactant to the permeable cement composition yields at least a pumpable slurry with a minimal amount of water or brine solution.

The present invention provides methods for creating reduced-density, coated particulates and methods for using such particulates in subterranean operations. More particularly, the present invention relates to methods and compositions for effecting the density of particulates by coating them on-the-fly with a density-reducing material. One embodiment of the present invention describes methods of making a reduced-density, coated particulate comprising the steps of coating a particulate material with a coating material to create a coated particulate; providing a density-reducing material; and, adhering the density-reducing material to the surface of the coated particulate on-the-fly to create reduced-density, coated particulates.

The present invention includes methods and compositions that include a resin composition comprising from about 5% to about 30% phenol, from about 40% to about 70% phenol formaldehyde, from about 10 to about 40% furfuryl alcohol, from about 0.1% to about 3% of a silane coupling agent, and from about 1% to about 15% of a surfactant and methods of using of that resin in controlling particulate flowback from a subterranean formation.
摘要:
Improved methods and compositions for coating proppant particles with a hardenable resin composition, suspending the coated proppant particles in a fracturing fluid, and consolidating the proppant particles after being placed in fractures into permeable masses are provided. These methods and compositions are especially suitable for low temperature well, specifically those around the 60° F. to 225° F. ranges. Preferably, a liquid hardenable resin component is mixed with a liquid hardening agent component on-the-fly to form a hardenable resin composition. The hardenable resin composition is coated onto proppant particles on-the-fly that are conveyed from a source thereof to form resin-coated proppant particles in real-time. The resin-coated proppant particles are suspended in the fracturing fluid to be utilized down hole.

The present invention relates to methods for stabilizing an unconsolidated or weakly consolidated zone of a subterranean formation. One embodiment provides a method of stabilizing a subterranean formation comprising the steps of placing a gelable liquid composition into the subterranean formation, wherein the gelable liquid composition is capable of forming a gelled substance after placement; and, allowing the gelable liquid composition to convert into a gelled substance that stabilizes unconsolidated or weakly consolidated particles within the subterranean formation. Another embodiment provides a method of stimulating production from a subterranean formation comprising the steps of placing a gelable liquid composition into the subterranean formation; allowing the gelable liquid composition to convert into a gelled substance; creating at least one fracture in the subterranean formation extending from the well bore, through the gelled substance, and into an untreated zone of the subterranean formation; depositing proppant into at least one such fracture.
