The VelocityTM perforating gun system provides safe, efficient, and reliable operations. A shorter and lighter design is engineered for the fast-paced pump-down perforating environment, without requiring any field wiring of guns, detonators, or igniters. It minimizes pump-down equipment complexity, improves vital run rate efficiencies, and can be fully verified on-surface before making a trip in the well.
Combining premier engineering with industry-trusted technology, the Velocity perforating gun system provides safe, fast, efficient, and reliable operations. Shorter and lighter in design, Velocity is engineered for the fast-paced pump-down perforating environment. It minimizes pump-down equipment complexity and improves vital run rate efficiencies.
PSI minimum pressure rating
Detonator temperature (350°F/1hr)
Detonator and igniter cartridges
Reduction in make-up length
Velocity guns are fully addressable, with any communication problems identified well before a gun is fired. Guns can be digitally checked on-surface and at any time during the descent. Open architecture enables multiple charges and switches to create a solution customized to your well. The Velocity plug-and-play setup reduces potential leak paths and eliminates errors associated with field wiring.
Advantages
Velocity guns do not rely on legacy pressure-actuated switches—a leading causal factor for wireline NPT. Velocity’s digital switches allow a misfired gun to be skipped so operations are uninterrupted. The detonator and igniter cartridges have been tested by an independent third-party laboratory and are certified RF safe and voltage safe up to 500V.
