“…Research in this field deals with three categories due to the sharp decrease in the formation permeabilityin some cases, up to 60%: (1) maximizing the formation permeability, (2) minimizing sand production, and (3) proper placement of injectable resins in the reservoir . The most widely used resins to strengthen the formation are epoxy resins, furan resins, polyester resins, urea, and phenol–formaldehyde resins. , The selection of these resins is dependent on financial parameters, simplicity of production, the degree of effect on the strength and permeability of the formation, and the density during the injection. Resins must have an insoluble three-dimensional structure to strengthen formation and be placed on the surface of the sands inside the formation to prevent their flow, while, at the time of injection, must have a low viscosity .…”
