Abstract
A solids-control fluid for controlling flow of solids in a subterranean formation is disclosed herein. The solids-control fluid can include a diluent and a curable resin. The diluent can include a glycol ether. The curable resin can be dispersed within the diluent for controlling flow of solids in the subterranean formation.
Claims17
A method comprising:
- isolating an interval of a wellbore that is formed in a subterranean formation;
- injecting a solids-control fluid into the interval of the wellbore, the solids-control fluid comprising a solids-control agent and a diluent that comprises monoethylene glycol and polyalkylene glycol monobutyl ether;
- and
- injecting an aqueous post-flush fluid that comprises a solids-control fluid activator into the interval of the wellbore for causing the solids-control fluid to consolidate in the subterranean formation.

A solids-control fluid comprising:
- a solids-control agent;
- a diluent comprising monoethylene glycol and polyalkylene glycol monobutyl ether;
- and
- a curable resin dispersed within the diluent for controlling flow of solids in a subterranean formation, wherein a spacer fluid and an aqueous post-flush fluid are injectable into at least a portion of a wellbore for causing the solids-control fluid to consolidate in the subterranean formation.

A solids-control fluid comprising:
- a solids-control agent;
- a diluent comprising monoethylene glycol and polyalkylene glycol monobutyl ether;
- and
- a furfuryl-alcohol resin dispersed within the diluent for controlling flowback of solids from a subterranean formation, wherein a spacer fluid and an aqueous post-flush fluid are injectable into at least a portion of a wellbore for causing the solids-control fluid to consolidate in the subterranean formation.
