Abstract

Plastic beads, including polyamides and polystyrene beads crosslinked with divinylbenzene, having a curable resin coating are highly useful for sand control and/or hydraulic fracturing of subterranean. The curable resin coated plastic beads preferably have an apparent specific gravity less than about 1.5.

Claims (30)

2. The curable resin coated plastic bead of Claim 1, wherein the plastic bead comprises a polystyrene divinylbenzene or a polyamide or a derivative thereof.
3. A proppant or sand control particulate comprising the curable resin coated plastic bead of Claim 2.
4. The curable resin coated plastic bead of Claim 2, wherein the plastic bead comprises a polystyrene divinylbenzene or a derivative thereof.
5. The curable resin coated plastic bead of Claim 2, wherein the plastic bead comprises a polyamide.
6. The curable resin coated plastic bead of Claim 4, wherein the amount of divinylbenzene in the polystyrene divinylbenzene is between from about 1 to about 30 weight percent.
7. The curable resin coated plastic bead of Claim 6, wherein the amount of divinylbenzene in the polystyrene divinylbenzene is less than about 10 weight percent.

25. A sand control method for a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation, comprising:
introducing into the wellbore a slurry comprising a curable resin coated plastic bead of Claim 2 and a carrier fluid;
placing the curable resin coated plastic bead adjacent the subterranean formation to form a fluid-permeable pack that is capable of reducing or substantially preventing the passage of formation particles from the subterranean formation into the wellbore while at the same time allowing passage of formation fluids from the subterranean formation into the wellbore.
26. The method of Claim 25, wherein the plastic bead of the curable resin coated plastic bead is a polystyrene divinylbenzene or a derivative thereof.
27. The method of Claim 25, wherein the plastic bead of the curable resin coated plastic bead is a polyamide or a derivative thereof.
28. The method of claim 25, wherein the carrier fluid is unviscosified water or brine.
29. The method of Claim 25, wherein the fluid permeable pack is formed in the absence of a screen.
30. A method of treating a wellbore comprising the steps of placing a screening device in the wellbore and then injecting a treating composition into the wellbore, wherein the treating composition comprises a carrier fluid and a curable resin coated plastic bead of Claim 2, and further wherein the treating composition is injected into the wellbore such that the curable resin coated plastic bead is packed around the exterior of the screening device to provide a fluid permeable barrier around the screening device which is operable for preventing the migration of formation particulates into the screening device.
