Definitions

  • This invention refers in general to an integral assembly (a "perf assembly") of a plurality of perforating guns ("guns") containing a plurality of shaped charges (“charges").
  • This perf assembly is used for perforation of wells to increase flow.
  • This invention is particularly directed to a new coupling between a plurality of perf guns to allow faster and more reliable assembly and sequential firing of the guns during the perforation process of production wells.
  • This process of well perforation consists of the perforation of the metallic casing of a well, of isolating cement surrounding the casing, and of the layers of rock in the producing formation by means of explosives housed within perforating guns; achieving, through bore holes produced by a plurality of charges, a connection between the depths of the producing zone and the interior of the well. While this invention is generally found in the petroleum production industry, it may be equally applied to other environments where perforation of well casing into the surrounding environment is necessary, such as water wells. Background of the Invention
  • the perforation of producing wells is realized by lowering into the well a perf assembly comprised of a plurality of guns each containing a plurality of charges.
  • the guns are connected by intermediate subs containing pass through openings for wiring.
  • a firing wire coupled with the casing as a ground, carries an electrical signal through the well bore to connect with each gun and allow firing of the detonators.
  • the detonators may be fired through independently addressable switches or through a series of pressure switches and diodes which isolate each gun until the desired firing event.
  • the perf assembly is then retrieved from the well hole and the subs are disassembled and saved for reuse. Undetonated explosives are safely disposed of, and the remaining assembly, consisting of pierced pipes, wires, and electronics are then disposed.
  • One method of independently firing the guns is to use individually addressable detonators such as those described in U.S. Patent 8,091,477 and U.S. Patent 8,230,788.
  • Another method of independently firing the guns is to connect each gun through a pressure sensitive switch which grounds the detonator of each gun until the pressure of the previous gun's firing triggers the switc to an active state.
  • diodes are used to cause eac gun to require a polarity reversal from the signal which fired the previous gun. This prevents the signal from propagating throughout the assembly as the blasts set each pressure switch sequentially, and the pressure switches prevent the later guns from firing before the previous ones.
  • the preferred method is to fire the farthest/lowest gun first. Then, sequentially fire each gun back toward the well opening. This is because the explosion/pressure/debris from one gun's firing can possibly damage adjacent guns. Wires can break or connectors can loosen during Shockwave vibrations, or by blast force. With pressure switches, any damage requires retrieval of the perf assembly for correction, as the rest of the assembly is now non-fireable.
  • Hours are controlled by working against the clock and by penalizing setbacks; to that respect, it is absolutely necessary that the strictest safety norms be followed while handling explosive material; all of these factors together contribute to an increased likelihood that operators may commit errors while wiring or assembling the guns into a perf assembly to be introduced into the well. Further, even if the operators do everything correctly, the actions required to connect the pipe sections that make up the perf assembly may still produce a costly mistake.
  • the perf gun must be disassembled.
  • the operators m st separate the pierced gun casings from the sub connectors joining the guns, remove any wiring and or electronics.
  • the sub connectors between the guns which are costly and reusable, are set aside for later operations.
  • the wiring and electronics are disposed of along with the pierced gun casing and the remaining pails of the perf assembly.
  • FIG. 1 is a cross-section of an assembly of multiple armed and assembled guns in a manner that is utilized in the industry.
  • FIG. 2 shows a cross section of a single gun joined on each end with a tandem sub assembly.
  • FIG. 2A shows an insulator cap assembly prior to mating with the gun or sub.
  • FIG. 2B shows a bottom sub assembly containing a detonator attached to a bottom sub and mated with a perf gun.

  • FIG. 4 shows two guns with insulating contact pins in each end joined by a sub assembly incorporating a feed through pin to connect there between.

  • More reliable assembly can be accomplished if there is a safe way to prepare and wire perf gun segments in a controlled environment in such a manner that the segment can be safely transported to a well site and joined with other segments to produce the needed perf gun apparatus for use in the well,
  • a plurality of independent shape charged shots are sequentially positioned and wired to a pressure/diode switch, secured centrally in an end cap at one end, and wired to an insulated polarized-charge carrier contact pin at the distal end to produce a shot assembly.
  • the shot assembly is secured internally in a gun body casing via snap rings fitted to a groove at the internal end of standardized pipe threads internal to and located at the ends of the casing to produce a perforating gun segment.
  • the pressure/diode switch is recessed in the gun body casing, which may be temporarily enclosed with an insulating protector cap to allow safe transportation and storage of the perforating gun assemblies.
  • the distal end's contact pin projects from the end of the gun body casing and may also be temporarily enclosed with an insulating protector cap secured to the internal threads of the body casing allowing safe transportation and storage of the perforating gun assemblies.
  • a plurality of guns with intermediate/tandem sub-assemblies and pressure/diode switches may be pre-assembled before transportation to reduce site prep work.
  • Sub-assemblies maybe manufactured from low-grade steel, plastics, fiberglass, or other material of sufficient strength to support the weight of the gun assembly and securely connect it to the drill pipe.
  • a non-conductive material such as plastics or fiberglass would also require an integrated conductor to ensure proper electrical grounding between the various assemblies.
  • a plastic insulating or a metal bottom end cap attaches to the charge carrier, and approximately centers it within the gun body.
  • the bottom end cap has a central hole through which passes a wire carrying the electrical firing signal.
  • a second wire connects to a grounding pin affixed to the plastic end cap or to the metal end cap which is routed to contact against the gun body to establish a ground. Any of these wires may be broken or disconnected during assembly and therefore prior assembly and testing in is preferred.

  • a tandem sub with a feed through pin is joined to the gun and distal end of the feed through pin is connected to the firing wire of the neighboring neighboring gun in a traditional manner of the current practices in the industry.
  • the innovation includes replacing the traditional plastic or metal end caps on each charge carrier with an improved design which is more robust and reliable in the assembly of multiple guns into a single perf assembly as taught in the prior application, and includes an additional design for a robust and reliable end cap which houses a pressure/diode switch.
  • the end cap of one perf gun positions the insulated contact pin to extend just past the end of the gun casing.
  • the end cap of the neighboring perf gun positions the pressure/diode switch slightly recessed within the end of the gun casing.
  • a disposable short sub assembly joins the two neighboring perf guns by threading into the ends of each and thus placing the insulating contact pin of the first perf gun in contact with the pressure/diode switch of the second perf gun.
  • the improved design eliminates the through hole in the center of the bottom end cap, which was previously used to pass wires through for connection, and allows the connection to be made by simply screwing the two guns together with the disposable short sub assembly. This eliminates the difficulty of ensuring proper wiring and operation. Further, the disposable short sub assembly does not need to be retrieved from between the guns after firing, or more importantly in instances of misfires which leads to handling explosives in an unknown state.
