Low-toxicity, polymerizable aqueous consolidation compositions for use in subterranean formation consolidation treatments

A method comprising:

• providing a portion of a subterranean formation;
• introducing a polymerizable aqueous consolidation composition into the portion of the subterranean formation at a rate and pressure sufficient to create or enhance at least one fracture therein,
• wherein the polymerizable aqueous consolidation composition comprises:
• an aqueous base fluid;
• proppant particulates;
• a polyvalent metal salt of a carboxylic acid (R—COOH) wherein R is a polymerizable olefinically unsaturated functional group;
• a coupling agent comprising functional groups that bond with both organic and inorganic materials;
• and
• at least one polymerization agent consisting of
• an amine,
• wherein the polyvalent metal salt of the carboxylic acid and the at least one polymerization agent contacts the proppant particulates, thereby creating coated, proppant particulates, and
• wherein the coated, proppant particulates are placed into the at least one fracture so as to form a proppant pack;
• and
• then introducing a substantially solids-free, aqueous flush fluid into the portion of the subterranean formation so as to remove the polymerizable aqueous consolidation composition from interstitial spaces between the coated, proppant particulates in the proppant pack;
• and
• then introducing a water-soluble polymerization initiator composition into the portion of the subterranean formation so as to contact the coated, unconsolidated particulates;
• wherein the water-soluble polymerization initiator composition comprises:
• an aqueous base fluid, and
• a water-soluble polymerization initiator;
• and
• then consolidating the coated, proppant particulates in the proppant pack.
