Methods are provided for stabilizing a portion of a subterranean formation
or reducing the production of particulates from a portion of a
subterranean formation comprising contacting the portion of the
subterranean formation with a pre-flush fluid; contacting the portion of
the subterranean formation with a consolidation fluid comprising a resin
and an aqueous dissolvable solvent; and, contacting the portion of the
subterranean formation with an after-flush fluid. Other methods are
provided for fracturing a portion of a subterranean formation while
controlling particulates comprising contacting the portion of the
subterranean formation with a pre-flush fluid; contacting the portion of
the subterranean formation with a consolidation fluid comprising a resin
and an aqueous dissolvable solvent; and, contacting the portion of the
subterranean formation with a fracturing fluid at a pressure sufficient
to create or enhance a fracture in the subterranean formation.
