Abstract
Embodiments provide methods and compositions for mitigating water production for hydrocarbon recovery. According to an embodiment, the method involves a treatment fluid composition. The treatment fluid composition includes a base liquid, a gelling agent, and a crosslinking agent. The treatment fluid composition is introduced downhole where it is positioned in a high permeability streak adjacent to a wellbore. After crosslinking, the treatment fluid composition blocks water in the high permeability streak from penetrating into the wellbore.
