Designed for absolute reliability, DynaStage™ minimizes uncertainty and operational risks, achieving industry-leading perforating performance. With DynaStage, you not only benefit from the safest and most innovative solution in well completion technology, but also gain on-the-ground support, service and expertise from a trusted partner in reliable perforating.

As a fully disposable and recyclable solution, DynaStage aims to minimize environmental impact and streamline your operation. DynaStage features the Multitronic V Firing Panel, Surface Tester and intrinsically safe integrated switch-detonator, including preassembled guns and tandem sub adapter. The solution is the most efficient option in plug-n-go perforating — enabling the lowest total cost of operations in well completion.

Easy Arming Arming a DynaStage gun in the field is as easy as installing a battery in a flashlight. There are no wire connections or detonator crimping requirements. Safety and reliability are improved, and overall operating time is reduced.

The DynaStage detonator is immune to electrical hazards that can impact conventional selective perforating equipment because it can only be energized by a series of digitally coded signals from the Multitronic V Firing Panel. The patent-pending plug-n-go design reduces the potential for errors by eliminating the need for wiring and crimping.

The Multitronic V Firing Panel is as easy to use as a smartphone app. As soon as the gun string is connected, the control panel queries and indicates the number of guns found. The highly intuitive panel allows the gun string to be safely tested and monitored throughout the entire pumpdown operation. The Multitronic V also supports “shoot-on-the-fly” operation through an instant-fire capability.

Specifications• 20 guns and one setting tool per descent on monocable.

• Temperature rating 300°F/150°C for 1 hr.

• Unlike some EFI or EBW detonators, the DynaStage system is available without import, export or transport restrictions worldwide, except for sanctioned countries.

• Gun size available in 3-1/8 in., length can vary.

• Charges 22.7g, DP or GH, RDX or HMX.

DynaStage reduces overall operating time at every stage of perforating, so that frac costs and total completion costs are lower. By integrating a streamlined, service-oriented solution with the most reliable perforating tool available, you can realize extraordinary performance:

STREAMLINED EXECUTION

• Fully assembled guns built by certified technicians are delivered to your job site with phasing, shot density and charge type customized to operator specifications.

• Full selectivity, stage skipping and gun redundancy are easily enabled for the most complex completions.

• With no inventory, field assembly or maintenance required, labor costs are reduced and wellsite operations can continue without interruption.

• Space-saving tandem adapter reduces overall gun length and weight by 20-25%.

A small incremental investment in the DynaStage system can prevent a catastrophic surface detonation of a perforating gun, avoiding risks posed by conventional methods and other switch-detonator combinations. DynaStage integrated switch-detonators require a series of specific digital codes to initiate, preventing any other energy sources from unintentionally initiating the detonator or igniter. With DynaStage, there is no handling of explosives or remnants — certified technicians build and deliver fully assembled guns to the job site, eliminating gun assembly, wiring and cutting detonating cord. This greatly reduces the risk of inadvertent ignition or detonation.

Significantly Safer

Lost time associated with conventional equipment resulting from mishaps, misruns, misfires or removing of bridge plugs set in the wrong location can add millions in costs to a multiwell field development program. DynaStage is engineered to minimize these risks, protecting completions from skyrocketing costs:

• Wireline service companies using conventional equipment experience reliability in unconventional well perforating ranging from 30 to 100 runs per misrun. The unique design of the DynaStage solution dramatically improves upon these performance results by targeting a 20X increase in reliability over any plug-and-perf equipment in use today.

• All DynaStage integrated switch-detonators must pass X-ray quality assurance, significantly reducing the chance of lost time due to a manufacturer’s defect.

DynaStage incorporates innovative operational designs, which lower rig time and enhance well completion efficiency:

• Unlike traditional selective-fire equipment, the DynaStage integrated switch-detonator has no wires. A solid pin provides a robust and efficient connection, eliminating the potential for lost time from miswired connections. Arming a gun is simpler than installing a battery in a flashlight, offering a true plug-n-go solution.

• Initiator functionality, setting tool and guns can be quickly tested on the surface, when run in hole and between shots, significantly reducing the chance of a misrun.

• Skip-over capabilities for individual guns, ensuring every stage has the highest chance of being perforated for maximum productivity.

Highest Efficiency Lowest Risk

Companies who adopt this technology will be more competitive because they will deliver higher performance, achieve lower total cost of operations and mitigate the surface detonation risk posed by conventional switch-detonator combinations.
