    Perforating Techniques

    • Skill
    • 5 Days
    • classroom1Classroom

    This very comprehensive course covers Perforating applications for Fracturing and Sand Control, and deployment techniques. The course starts with a brief review of wireline equipment, and then presents the types of explosives used and their main applications. Perforating for Sand Management and Sand Control is also discussed, including an introduction of Geomechanics.
    Day 1
    • Welcome
    • 1st day quiz
    • Introduction to the course
    • Logging Unit - Depth Control - Tension Device

    • Introduction to Perforations
    • Explosives History and Shaped Charge Technology
    • Shaped Charge Design
    • Perforations Hardware
    • Additional Hardware
    • Tractors

    During the first day, attendants will be submitted to a quiz to identify strengths and topics to be developed, enabling the instructor to optimize the course approach and participants will discuss the equipment used to perforate.

    Day 2
    • Perforations Conveyance
    • Skin Equations
    • TCP
    • TCP firing heads
    • Wireline perforating
