ABSTRACT:
The addition of an adhesive coated material in intimate mixture with particulates for fracturing, gravel packing or other formation treatments decreases or substantially eliminates the flowback of particulates whether proppants or formation fines while stabilizing the particulate within the formation. Preferred adhesive coated materials include glass or ceramic fibers, polyolefins, polyamides, polyvinyls and cellulose derivatives in the form of particles, ribbons, fibers or flakes.
