Titan Division of Hunting Energy Services, a subsidiary of Hunting PLC, the international energy services company, on Sept. 15 introduced its new EQUAfrac Limited consistent-hole shaped charges.
EQUAfrac Limited is designed for applications requiring the lowest variation in entry hole diameter with limited penetration. This charge line addition expands on the technology that made EQUAfrac shaped charges the ideal solution for obtaining consistent entry hole size, optimal penetration and minimal debris in unconventional completions.
Field results show EQUAfrac Limited technology can provide entry hole sizes with less than 5% variation in hole diameter, and in some cases less than 3%, depending on gun size and casing type. With EQUAfrac Limited, Hunting now offers efficient shaped charges for both limited and extended penetration, consistent-hole applications.
