A method for wellbore treatment. The method including preparing an encapsulated treatment agent via polymerization, feeding the encapsulated treatment agent into the wellbore, delivering the encapsulated treatment agent to a desired depth within a formation in the wellbore, activating an acoustic or an electromagnetic source at the desired depth within the formation, and generating an acoustic field or an electromagnetic field. The acoustic field or electromagnetic field activates the encapsulant thereby releasing the treatment agent into the wellbore and a desired depth.

The present disclosure provides methods for inhibiting scale formation in subterranean reservoirs. The methods may include depositing silica-based nanoparticles on a surface of the subterranean reservoir and transporting a scale inhibitor to the surface of the subterranean reservoir. The scale inhibitor may adhere to the silica-based nanoparticles through a chemical interaction. The silica-based nanoparticles may adhere to one or more surfaces within the subterranean reservoir.
