Compositions and methods of reducing release of fugitive dust from particulate substrates are provided. The method involves applying a composition onto the substrate in an amount effective to reduce dust release and remain effective for an extended period of time, wherein the composition comprises an aqueous medium, a surface modifying agent, and a dispersant.

Aqueous based dust control compositions and methods

Methods and compositions for suppressing fugitive dust are provided herein. To suppress fugitive dust, particulate materials, dust and or substrates can be treated with a mixture having a hydrophobizing agent and an oil. The hydrophobizing agent can be an organo- or halosilane, a tallow alkylamine, an amine-functionalized polysiloxane, or an amine-functionalized hydrophobic polymer.

Oil-based dust suppression composition and method of use

An aqueous slurry composition for use in industries such as petroleum and pipeline industries comprises an aqueous liquid, particulates, a hydrophobizing agent that renders the particulate surface hydrophobic and a hydrophobic polymer. The slurry is produced by rendering the surface of the particulate hydrophobic during or prior to making the slurry. The method and composition can find many applications in different industries, particularly in petroleum industry.

Aqueous slurry for particulates transportation

Described is a proppant composition comprising particulates coated with a polymeric coating comprising a polymerizable natural oil, and a method of making this composition. The polymerizable natural oil is a glyceryl ester that comprises greater than about 40% by weight of polyunsaturated fatty acids, or a derivative of this ester. The proppant composition is made by mixing particulates with a polymerizable natural oil and polymerizing the polymerizable natural oil to coat the surface of the particulates with polymer comprising polymerized natural oil. The composition may be used in a slurry that is used for hydraulic fracturing operations to improve proppant transportation and to mitigate proppant flowback.

Proppant treatment with polymerizable natural oils

An aqueous slurry composition for use in industries such as petroleum and pipeline industries that includes: a particulate, an aqueous carrier fluid, a chemical compound that renders the particulate surface hydrophobic, and a small amount of an oil. The slurry is produced by rendering the surface of the particulate hydrophobic during or before the making of the slurry. The addition of the oil greatly enhances the aggregation potential of the hydrophobically modified particulates once placed in the well bore.

Control of particulate entrainment by fluids

An aqueous slurry composition for use in industries such as the petroleum and pipeline industries includes a particulate, an aqueous liquid and a chemical compound that renders the particulate surface extremely hydrophobic. The slurry is produced by rendering the surface of the particulate extremely hydrophobic during or before making the slurry.

Method for making particulate slurries and particulate slurry compositions

An aqueous slurry composition for use in industries such as petroleum and pipeline industries, such as for use as a fracturing fluid. The aqueous slurry composition includes a particulate, an aqueous liquid and a chemical compound that renders the particulate surface hydrophobic. The slurry is produced by rendering the surface of the particulate hydrophobic during or prior to making the slurry.

Compositions and methods for making aqueous slurry

Compositions, apparatuses and methods for isolating target zones for hydraulic fracturing, in particular, the use of smart fluids (i.e., magnetorheological fluids) to isolate target zones for fracturing by inducing an electromagnetic field to increase the viscosity of the fluids to form packers or plugs in the annulus of the wellbore and to isolate the target zone are disclosed.

Applications of smart fluids in well service operations

A sand slurry composition and a method for making sand slurries are disclosed. The sand slurry composition is comprised of sand, an aqueous liquid and a chemical compound that renders the surface sand of hydrophobic. The method is comprised of rendering sand surface hydrophobic during or before making the slurry. This method and composition can find many applications in different industries, especially in various oil field applications.

Aqueous particulate slurry compositions and methods of making same

A method of agglomerating coal particles in a subterranean formation having a coal seam, comprising the steps of providing (a) a fluid having an aqueous medium and a first collector and/or a frother; (b) pumping the fluid into the formation and (c) contacting coal particles in the formation thereby agglomerating the contacted coal particles.
