Workflow for evaluating stabilization products for use in subterranean formations

摘要

Methods of evaluating formation stabilization treatments for subterranean formations are provided. In some embodiments, the methods comprise: providing; adding a portion of test fluid to each of a first and second portion of a material from a subterranean formation and agitating to form a first mixture and a second mixture; measuring capillary suction time of the first mixture and turbidity of the second mixture; placing a sandpack comprising another portion of the formation material in a column; passing another portion of the test fluid through the sandpack to collect an effluent; measuring a differential pressure across the sandpack and a turbidity of the effluent; and selecting a formation stabilization treatment for the subterranean formation based at least in part on one or more of the capillary suction time of the first mixture, the turbidity of the second mixture, the differential pressure across the sandpack, and the turbidity of the effluent.
