*STIMGUNTM & STIMTUBETM ASSEMBLY ENHANCED STIMULATION OPERATIONS

STIMTUBETM features:   STIMTUBETM provides improvements:
Perforation breakdown and cleanup   Perforation efficiency
Near wellbore stimulation   Hydraulic fracturing efficiency
Hydraulic fracture entry point control   Well production
Lowers hydraulic fracture initiation pressures
1-1/2"- 3" O.D. for through tubing use
 
To achieve maximum results of the STIMGUNTM assembly, use with the OWEN Raptor Perforating Systems
 
The STIMGUNTM system combines conventional perforating with propellant stimulation, computer modeling and dynamic pressure measurement. In one field operation, well perforation and perforation breakdown can be accomplished. Perforation efficiency, hydraulic fracturing efficiency and well productivity or injectivity can all be dramatically improved with this technology.
 
The STIMGUNTM assembly used in the Mara-Stim process employs a cylindrical sleeve of gas generating propellant that is simply slid in place over the outside of conventiona l hollow steel carrier perforating guns. It can be run on wireline or in a tubing conveyed configuration. The propellant is ignited by the pressure and shock wave of the shaped charges as they penetrate the gun, casing and formation. The propellant sleeve, on initial inspection, woul.d appear similar to a piece of PVC pipe held in position by slightly larger end subs on the carrier. The technical design, of the propellant sleeves, is complex, which ensures a consistent ignition and burn rate.
