Summary:A method of reducing fluid loss includes pumping a wellbore fluid including resin coated solid particulate into a wellbore having fractures therein, the resin coated solid particulate forming a substantially impermeable plug in the fractures. A method of drilling a wellbore includes drilling a wellbore through a formation using a first wellbore fluid; and upon experiencing a fluid loss event to the formation, pumping a second wellbore fluid including resin coated solid particulates into the wellbore.
