The present invention relates to methods for controlling the migration of
unconsolidated particulates in a portion of a subterranean formation, and
more particularly, to the using a pressure pulse to enhance the
effectiveness of placement of a consolidation fluid in a portion of a
subterranean formation. Some methods of the present invention provide
methods of treating a subterranean formation comprising injecting a
consolidation fluid into the subterranean formation while periodically
applying a pressure pulse having a given amplitude and frequency to the
consolidation fluid.
