ABSTRACT:
Methods of gravel packing are disclosed utilizing controlled melting point materials with the gravel placed behind a liner located in the wellbore. The controlled melting point materials can be coated on the gravel prior to its placement behind the liner or circulated behind the liner separate from the gravel. After placement of the gravel and controlled melting point material behind the liner, heat is provided to melt the material so that it acts as a consolidating agent.
