METHOD OF REDUCING FINES MIGRATION IN A POROUS STRUCTURE

摘要

A method of stabilizing fines within a permeable earthen formation comprising contacting the fines with an effective amount of an organic copolymer. The organic polymer has a noncationic character in a liquid media having a pH of 7 or above and therefore can be utilized with other cationic or anionic chemicals without forming damaging percipitates or decomposing during its use.
