What is claimed is: 1. A method for modifying the wettability of sandstone, the method comprising applying a chemical formulation to sandstone, the sandstone bearing at least one of oil or gas, and the chemical formulation comprising: a polar organic solvent, water, a fluorochemical represented by the formula: RfSO2--N(R)(CnH2n)CHZ(C mH2m)N(R')SO2Rf wherein each Rf is independently--CpF2p+1, where p is an integer from 2 to 5; R is selected from the group consisting of an aryl group and a C1 to C6 alkyl group; m and n are each independently integers from 1 to 20; Z is selected from the group consisting of--H and a group having the formula--(CtH2t)--X-Q-Si(Y')w(Y)3-w, in which t is an integer from 0 to 4;--X--is selected from the group consisting of--O--,--S--and--NH--;-Q-is selected from the group consisting of--C(O)NH--(CH2)v--and--(CH2)v--; v is an integer from 1 to 20; Y is a hydrolyzable group; Y' is a non-hydrolyzable group; and w is an integer from 0 to 2; and R' is selected from R and a group represented by the formula--(CH2)v--Si(Y')w(Y)3-w, with the proviso that when Z is--H, R' is a group represented by the formula--(CH2)v--Si(Y')w(Y)3-w; and a hydrolysis catalyst for hydrolyzing the Si--Y bond, the hydrolysis catalyst comprising one of an acid compound or alkaline compound. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein p is 4, m is an integer from 1 to 6, and n is an integer from 1 to 6. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein p is 4; R is--CH3; m and n are both 1; and Z is selected from the group consisting of--O--(CH2)3Si(OCH2CH3)3,--O--(CH2)3Si(OCH3)3, and--OC(O)NH(CH2)3Si(OCH2CH3)3. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein each Y is independently selected from the group consisting of a halogen, a C1 to C6 alkoxy group, a C1 to C6 acyloxy group, and an aryloxy group. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein Z is--H and R' is--(CH2)v--Si(Y)3 and wherein each Y is independently selected from the group consisting of--Cl and a C1 to C6 alkoxy group. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein Y' is selected from the group consisting of a C1 to C6 alkyl group and a C6 to C10 aryl group. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the polar organic solvent comprises at least one of an alcohol, a ketone, a nitrile, or a formamide. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the polar organic solvent comprises at least one of methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, acetone, acetonitrile, or dimethylformamide. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the polar organic solvent comprises at least one of methanol, ethanol, propanol, or butanol, and wherein Y is at least one of methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, or butoxy. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the acid compound comprises at least one of an organic acid or an inorganic acid. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the acid is an organic acid soluble in the polar organic solvent, and wherein the organic acid is at least one of acetic acid, citric acid, formic acid, triflic acid, or perfluorobutyric acid. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein the acid is an inorganic acid, and wherein the inorganic acid comprises at least one of hydroboric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, or hydrochloric acid. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the acid compound is an acid precursor which forms an acid when contacted with water. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the alkaline compound comprises at least one of an amine, an alkali metal hydroxide, or an alkaline earth metal hydroxide. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein applying takes place at least one temperature in a range from 20° C. to 220° C. 16. The method of claim 1, further comprising modifying the wetting of the sandstone, wherein the wetting is at least one of gas wetting or liquid wetting. 17. The method of claim 1, further comprising reducing the rate of at least one of n-decane imbibition of the sandstone or water imbibition of the sandstone. 18. The method of claim 1, wherein the sandstone is a sandstone formation penetrated by a well bore, and wherein the sandstone has at least one of an amount of water or an amount of condensate near the well bore. 19. The method of claim 18, wherein after the chemical formulation is applied to the sandstone, the amount of water near the well bore is decreased. 20. The method according to claim 1, further comprising extracting from the sandstone at least one of oil or gas. 21. The method of claim 1, further comprising covalently bonding the sandstone with a side-chain derived from the fluorochemical, the side-chain represented by the formula [RfSO2--N(R)(CnH2n)]2 CHZ' wherein each Rf is independently--CpF2p+1, where p is an integer from 2 to 5; each R is independently selected from the group consisting of an aryl group and a C1 to C6 alkyl group; n is an integer from 1 to 20; and Z' is a group of the formula--(CtH2t)--X-Q-Si(Y')w--, in which t is an integer from 0 to 4;--X--is selected from the group consisting of--O--,--S--and--NH--;-Q-is selected from the group consisting of--C(O)NH--(CH2)v--and--(CH2)v--; v is an integer from 1 to 20; Y' is a non-hydrolyzable group, w is an integer from 0 to 2; and the Si atom shares at least one covalent bond with the sandstone. 22. A composition comprising a sandstone bearing at least one of oil or gas, and a side-chain covalently bonded to the sandstone, the side-chain represented by the formula: [RfSO2--N(R)(CnH2n)]2 CHZ' wherein each Rf is independently--CpF2p+1, where p is an integer from 2 to 5; each R is independently selected from the group consisting of an aryl group and a C1 to C6 alkyl group; n is an integer from 1 to 20; and Z' is a group of the formula--(CtH2t)--X-Q-Si(Y')w--, in which t is an integer from 0 to 4;--X--is selected from the group consisting of--O--,--S--and--NH--; -Q-is selected from the group consisting of--C(O)NH--(CH2)v--and--(CH2)v--; v is an integer from 1 to 20; Y' is a non-hydrolyzable group; w is an integer from 0 to 2; and the Si atom shares at least one covalent bond with the sandstone.
