Abstract

Improved hardenable resin compositions and methods of consolidating particulate solids in subterranean zones penetrated by well bores are provided. The improved hardenable resin compositions of the invention are basically comprised of a hardenable organic resin, an aminosilane resin-to-particulate solid coupling agent, a viscous carrier fluid breaker for breaking separating films of viscous carrier fluid between resin coated particulate solids and a surface active agent for causing the resin composition to flow to the contact points between resin coated particulate solids.
