Patent ID: 8727001

Claim:
A method comprising: providing a well bore comprising an open hole section of about 30 feet or more having a filter cake neighboring at least a portion of a reservoir in a subterranean formation; placing a flow distribution system in the open hole section, the flow distribution system comprising: a flow distributor; a borehole support assembly; a plurality of annular barriers configured for selective activation wherein the annular barrier comprises a swellable material that activates upon contact with a particular fluid; a suspension tool; and a service assembly comprising a flow positioner; compromising the integrity of the filter cake by placing a filter cake degradation fluid in contact with at least a portion of the filter cake wherein the filter cake degradation fluid comprises at least one chosen from the group consisting of: an acid precursor; a delayed-release oxidizer; an oxidizer; a base; an enzyme; and any combination thereof; removing the service assembly from the well bore; installing completion tubing; and placing a consolidating agent system into the formation along the open hole section to at least partially reduce formation particulate migration in the open hole section, wherein the consolidating agent system comprises a consolidating agent chosen from the group consisting of: an aqueous tackifying agent, a silyl-modified polyamide compound, a crosslinkable aqueous polymer composition, a polymerizable organic monomer composition, and any combination thereof; wherein the formation particulates in the open hole section of about 30 feet or more are consolidated without the use of a gravel pack.
