ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides improved methods of consolidating particulate material in a subterranean zone penetrated by a well bore. The methods basically comprise the steps of coating the particulate material with a hardenable resin composition and irradiating the hardenable resin composition coating on the particulate material with microwaves to thereby accelerate the hardening of the resin composition whereby the particulate material is rapidly consolidated into a stationary permeable mass.
