Abstract:
Disclosed embodiments relate to methods of completing wells in subterranean formations. An exemplary embodiment comprises forming an artificial barrier to water flow, wherein the artificial barrier is located at or above a hydrocarbon-water interface between a water-bearing formation zone and a hydrocarbon-bearing formation zone. The exemplary embodiment further comprises consolidating a portion of the hydrocarbon-bearing formation zone, wherein the artificial barrier is located between the consolidated portion of the hydrocarbon-bearing formation zone and the water-bearing formation zone.
