Abstract

Systems and methods deliver degradable polyester during gravel packing and may include a gravel pack system disposed within a wellbore formed in a subterranean formation. The systems and methods may include drilling at least one interval of a wellbore with a non-aqueous wellbore fluid, wherein the non-aqueous wellbore fluid produces a filter cake in the at least one interval of the wellbore and gravel packing an interval of a wellbore traversing a subterranean formation with a gravel pack that comprises non-aqueous gravel pack carrier fluid and proppants. The systems and methods may also include hydrolyzing degradable polyester that is associated with the gravel pack and degrading at least one portion of the filter cake.
