Abstract

Embodiments herein include a method comprising proving a treatment fluid comprising an activator and providing gas-forming particulates comprising coating particulates with a binding agent, wherein the binding agent holds a gas-generating chemical onto the particulates. The gas-forming particulates are suspended in the treatment fluid and the treatment fluid comprising the gas-forming particulates is introduced into a subterranean formation. The gas-generating chemical and the activator then react to generate gas-formed particulates.
