ABSTRACT:
Novel uses of reactive surfactants in treating subterranean formations and/or proppant particulates are provided. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a method comprising: providing a treatment fluid that comprises a base fluid and a reactive surfactant; introducing the treatment fluid into a subterranean formation; and allowing the reactive surfactant to interact with a surface in the subterranean formation.
