Methods of servicing a wellbore in contact with a subterranean formation include passing an ester-based fluid into the wellbore and reducing a temperature of the ester-based fluid by an amount effective to cause the ester-based fluid to set, e.g., by from about 10.degree. F. to about 20.degree. F. The ester-based fluid includes a water in ester-based oil emulsion, a pH controlling additive, e.g., hydrated lime, in the water-phase, and an emulsifier to stabilize the pH controlling additive. Cooling the ester-based fluid causes the emulsion to destabilize, resulting in the release of the pH controlling additive. This release raises pH of the ester-based fluid by an effective amount to cause it to set. Wellbore servicing fluids comprising the foregoing ester-based fluid may be employed as environmentally friendly sealants or spotting fluids in wellbores.
