ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to improved methods for completing well bores along producing zones while controlling formation sands and increasing surface area available for production. Some embodiments of the methods of the present invention provide methods of controlling the migration of formation sand in a well bore and increasing surface area for well production comprising the steps of hydrajetting at least one slot into a zone along a well bore; and, placing a consolidation material comprising particulates into the slot.
