Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to treatments and compounds useful in subterranean formations, and, at least in some embodiments, to treatments and compounds wherein particulates and/or surfaces may be subject to silica scale build-up.
- hydraulic fracturing may be a useful treatment for increasing the conductivity of a subterranean formation.
- Hydraulic fracturing operations generally may involve pumping a treatment fluid (e.g., a fracturing fluid or a "pad fluid") into a well bore that penetrates a subterranean formation at a sufficient hydraulic pressure to create or enhance one or more pathways, or "fractures," in the subterranean formation.
- a treatment fluid e.g., a fracturing fluid or a "pad fluid
- Enhancing a fracture generally involves extending or enlarging a natural or pre-existing fracture in the formation. These fractures generally increase the permeability of that portion of the formation.
- the treatment fluid may comprise particulates, including proppant particulates that are deposited in the resultant fractures. The particulates are thought to help prevent the fractures from fully closing upon release of the hydraulic pressure, forming conductive channels through which fluid may flow between the formation and the well bore.
- the surfaces of particulates generally comprise minerals, which may react with other substances (e.g., water, minerals, treatment fluids, and the like) that reside in the subterranean formation in chemical reactions caused, at least in part, by conditions created by mechanical stresses on those minerals (e.g., fracturing of the mineral surfaces or the compaction of particulates).
- These reactions are herein referred to as “stress-activated reactions” or “stress-activated reactivity.”
- Stress-activated reactions or stress-activated reactivity.”
- One type of these stress- activated reactions may be diageneous reactions.
- diageneous reactions include chemical and/or physical processes that, in the presence of water, move a portion of the mineral in a particulate and/or convert a portion of the mineral in a particulate into some other form.
- a mineral that has been so moved or converted is herein referred to as a "diageneous product” or “diagenic product.”
- Any particulate comprising a mineral may be susceptible to these diageneous reactions, including natural silicate minerals (e.g., quartz), man-made silicates and glass materials, metal oxide minerals (both natural and man-made), and the like.
- the dissolution and precipitation of minerals in the course of these reactions may reduce the conductivity of a particulate pack, inter alia, by clogging the pore spaces in the particulate pack with mineral precipitate and/or collapsing the pore spaces by dissolving solid mineral in the "walls" of those pore spaces.
- minerals on the surface of a particulate may exhibit a tendency to react with substances in the reservoir, formation, and/or treatment fluids that are in contact with the particulates, such as water, gelling agents (e.g., polysaccharides, biopolymers, etc.), and other substances commonly found in these fluids. Molecules from such substances may become anchored to the mineral surface of the particulate.
- Silica silicon dioxide
- Silicates can be salts derived from silica or the silicic acids, especially orthosilicates and metasilicates, which may combine to form polysilicates.
- Silica solubility depends on, but not exclusively, a number of factors such as pH, temperature, and ionic composition. Most silicates, except the alkali silicates, are sparingly soluble in water. A number of different forms of silica and silicate salt deposits are possible, and formation of deposits depends, among other factors, on the temperature and pH of the water.

- One advantage of the methods disclosed herein may be the suppression of silica scale build-up within a particulate pack in a subterranean formation, including in the rock itself, fractures within the rock, and/or a well bore penetrating the subterranean formation. Without limiting the invention to a particular theory or mechanism, it is nonetheless currently believed that, when placed within a formation, a particulate pack may experience silica scale build-up due to silicon dissolution from either the particulates or the formation. The silicon may dissolve in fluids, such as formation fluids or treatment fluids.
- the dissolved silicon may then precipitate in various forms to create silica scale within, upstream, or downstream of the particulate pack.
- Such silica scale may have a tendency to form or collect in the interstitial spaces of the particulate pack, which may reduce the permeability of the pack over time.

- a hydrophobic material may be used to coat a filler material, and the filler material may then generate a diffusion barrier (e.g., comprising a diageneous product) on the particulates.
- the filler material may fill the pores, voids, crevices, cracks, or channels on the particulate surface, resulting in a surface that may be more hydrophobic than the original particulate surface.

For example, one of ordinary skill in the art may determine that a lower test temperature is required in order to avoid thermal decomposition of the particulates, the diffusion barrier, or the filler.
- a flow rate of simulated formation fluid is maintained at approximately 1 milliliter per minute during the test. The flow test is maintained for about 30 days. After this time, permeability of the particulate pack is measured prior to disassembly and after the particulate pack has been allowed to cool to room temperature, allowing for a retained permeability to be calculated from the equation:
- Permeability ma90 ⁇ i Permeability ma90 ⁇ i where, Permeability eX pose(i is the permeability of the particles after exposure to the simulated formation fluid, and Permeability unex posed is the permeability of the particles prior to exposure.
- Particulates prepared and tested according to the methods of the current invention using the characteristic conditions of the embodiment may exhibit a retained strength value of greater than about 20%.
- the particulates may exhibit a retained strength value of greater than about 60%.
- the particulates may exhibit a retained strength value of greater than about 80%.
- the particulates may exhibit a retained strength value of greater than about 90%.
- the particulates used to form a pack may be characterized by a retained permeability value of at least about 40%.
- the particulates may be characterized by a retained permeability of at least about 60%.
- the particulates may be characterized by a retained permeability of at least about 80%.
- the retained permeability may be at least about 99%.
