Abstract:
A subterranean formation sealant includes a mixture of an aqueous colloidal dispersion including silica nanoparticles and a C6-C12 fatty acid. Heating the sealant above 70° C. initiates gelation of the sealant. Sealing an opening in a water or gas producing zone in a subterranean formation includes providing a sealant including a mixture of a colloidal dispersion including silica nanoparticles and a C6-C12 fatty acid to the water or gas producing zone, initiating gelation of the sealant in situ, and solidifying the sealant in the water or gas producing zone to yield a set gel, thereby sealing the opening in the water or gas producing zone.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 8 , wherein the set gel is in the form of a solid gel having the appearance of a crystalline solid.
