A method includes providing an expandable metal slurry downhole in a wellbore. The expandable metal slurry includes granules of an expandable metal material suspended or dispersed in a fluid. Further, the method includes positioning the expandable metal slurry within the wellbore such that the granules of the expandable metal material in the expandable metal slurry are activatable to expand and form a seal within the wellbore.

Cement compositions and methods for using the same in subterranean formations are provided. In one embodiment, the methods include introducing a treatment fluid including an aqueous base fluid, at least one viscoelastic surfactant, a divalent salt, a metal salt; and a metal oxide into a wellbore penetrating at least a portion of a subterranean formation; and allowing the treatment fluid to at least partially set in the subterranean formation.

In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a drilling fluid may include a base fluid and one or more formaldehyde-based resins. The drilling fluid may further comprise one or more water-soluble acid catalyst precursors or the reaction products of such water-soluble acid catalyst precursors. The base fluid may include an aqueous or non-aqueous solution. The present disclosure also describes sealed subterranean petroleum formations that include such drilling fluids and methods for sealing subterranean wellbores by utilizing such drilling fluids.

A method of servicing a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation, comprising placing into the wellbore a cementitious composition comprising a crosslinked polymeric microgel, a clay, a cementitious material, and water. By incorporating the crosslinked polymeric microgel and the clay as disclosed herein, the cementitious composition can be used at relatively high temperatures.
