Abstract: Compositions and methods for treating a water and hydrocarbon producing subterranean formation to reduce the water permeability of the formation without reducing the hydrocarbon permeability of the formation are provided. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a treatment fluid including a base fluid and a relative permeability modifier including a polymer of at least one hydrophilic monomer and at least one hydrophobically modified hydrophilic monomer, wherein the polymer includes a sulfonate moiety, and introducing the treatment fluid into at least a portion of a subterranean formation.

Abstract: Systems and methods for modifying rheology of a cement slurry are described. Systems and methods may include a composition including diutan and a Sorel cement.

Abstract: Some embodiments herein comprise providing a treatment fluid comprising an aqueous base fluid, an acid, a permeability modifier, and a permeability modifier deactivator; providing an injection well having a first treatment zone comprising a first aqueous formation permeability, wherein the first treatment zone comprises formation damage; introducing the treatment fluid into the injection well, so as to contact the acid, the permeability modifier, and the permeability modifier deactivator with the first treatment zone; reacting the acid with the first treatment zone so as to repair a portion of the formation damage; reacting the permeability modifier with the first treatment zone so as to cause the first aqueous formation permeability to adopt a second, lesser aqueous formation permeability; and contacting the permeability modifier deactivator with the permeability modifier so as to deactivate the permeability modifier and restore the first treatment zone to about the first aqueous formation permeability.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for treating a water and hydrocarbon producing subterranean formation to reduce the water permeability of the formation without substantially reducing the hydrocarbon permeability of the formation are provided. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a treatment fluid including a base fluid and a relative permeability modifier including a polymer of at least one hydrophilic monomer and at least one hydrophobically modified hydrophilic monomer, wherein the polymer includes a sulfonate moiety, and introducing the treatment fluid into at least a portion of a subterranean formation.

Abstract: Methods for forming a fluid seal in a subterranean formation may comprise: providing a treatment fluid comprising an aqueous carrier fluid, a sealant composition, and a crosslinked polysaccharide composition. The treatment fluid is introduced into a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation and the crosslinked polysaccharide composition is formed into a viscosified gel in the wellbore. The viscosified gel substantially spans the diameter of the wellbore and holds the sealant composition in place. After forming the crosslinked polysaccharide composition into a viscosified gel in the wellbore, forming a fluid seal in the wellbore with the sealant composition.

Abstract: Suppressing passage of an aqueous fluid in a subterranean formation in preference to passage of an oleaginous fluid can often be desirable. Methods for suppressing the passage of an aqueous fluid in a subterranean formation, particularly a carbonate formation, can comprise: providing a treatment fluid comprising a carrier fluid and a relative permeability modifier comprising a reaction product of 1) an acrylamide polymer, any copolymer thereof, any derivative thereof, any salt thereof, or any combination thereof, and 2) a plurality of amine-containing compounds or any salt thereof, each amine-containing compound containing a primary amine, a secondary amine, or any combination thereof, and the amine-containing compounds being randomly reacted with at least a portion of the amide groups of the acrylamide polymer; and introducing the treatment fluid into a subterranean formation.
