Abstract: Methods of enhancing well production, including enhancing fluid flow by conductivity enhancement, diversion, and fluid-loss control, are described. The method of enhancing fluid flow includes introducing a fracturing fluid including resin-coated proppant particles into the formation; introducing (i) a thermosetting composition including one or more di- or tricarboxylic acids and one or more epoxidized fatty acid esters or (ii) thermoset particulates comprising an anhydride network of one or more epoxidized fatty acid esters cross-linked with one or more di- or tricarboxylic acids, into the formation; allowing the resin-coated proppant particles and (i) the thermosetting composition or (ii) the thermoset particulates to form a proppant matrix in a fracture; and allowing voids to form in the proppant matrix.

Abstract: A wellbore treatment fluid comprising: a base fluid; a viscosifier, wherein the viscosifier is a synthetic, cross-linked polymer having a thermal stability greater than 275° F.; a breaker, wherein the breaker decreases the viscosity of the treatment fluid at or above a breaker-activation temperature; and an activator, wherein the activator is a chelate complex, and wherein the activator activates the breaker to reduce the viscosity of the treatment fluid at a temperature less than the breaker-activation temperature. A method of treating a subterranean formation comprising: introducing the treatment fluid into the subterranean formation.

Abstract: Controlling fluid flow in a subterranean formation containing water and hydrocarbons utilizing a Gemini surfactant introduced to the formation via a wellbore. The Gemini surfactant includes a head group having two cationic groups linked by an alkyl spacer, an amide extending from each of the cationic groups, and each amide having a hydrophobic tail extending therefrom.
