    摘要: A nanosilica containing fluid system for shale stabilization in a shale formation. The nanosilica containing fluid system comprising a functionalized nanosilica composition operable to react with shale at the surface of the shale formation to form a barrier on the shale formation. The functionalized nanosilica composition comprising a nanosilica particle, the nanosilica particle having a mean diameter, and a functionalization compound, the functionalization compound appended to the surface of the nanosilica particle. And an aqueous-based fluid, the aqueous-based fluid operable to carry the functionalized nanosilica composition into the shale formation. The functionalization compound is an amino silane. The aqueous-based fluid is selected from the group consisting of water, deionized water, sea water, brine, and combinations thereof.

    摘要: Treating a subterranean formation with a composition including a maleic anhydride copolymer and an aminosilane crosslinker. The maleic anhydride copolymer includes first repeat units I and II and at least one of second repeat units III and IV: where each R1 is independently —H, —O(C1-C5) alkyl, or —(C1-C5) alkyl; each R2 is independently —H, —O(C1-C5) alkyl, or —(C1-C5) alkyl; each R3 is independently —OH or —O−M1, each M1 is independently an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, an ammonium ion, or a quaternary ammonium ion; and each R4 is independently —NH2 or —OM1. The aminosilane crosslinker has at least one primary amine group. Siloxane bonds may be formed between the aminosilane crosslinker and a siliceous material in contact with the gelled composition in the subterranean formation.
