Abstract
Methods suitable for use in a subterranean formation utilizing particulates coated with both a tackifier and a resin.
Claims24
A method comprising:
- providing first particulates and a liquid composition comprising a tackifying compound and a resin;
- coating the first particulates with the liquid composition to form coated particulates;
- suspending the coated particulates in a carrier fluid;
- and
- placing the carrier fluid comprising first coated particulates into a portion of a subterranean formation.

A method comprising:
- providing particulates, a tackifying compound, and a resin;
- coating the particulates with the tackifying compound to form tackifying compound-coated particulates;
- coating the tackifying compound-coated particulates with the resin to form twice-coated particulates;
- suspending the twice-coated particulates in a carrier fluid;
- and, placing the carrier fluid into a portion of a subterranean formation.
2 more elements
A method comprising:
- providing a plurality of particulates, a tackifying compound, and a resin;
- coating the particulates with the tackifying compound to form tackifying compound-coated particulates;
- suspending the tackifying compound-coated particulates in a carrier fluid wherein the carrier fluid comprises the resin;
- and, placing the carrier fluid into a portion of a subterranean formation.
