In today’s intensive well completion environments, the need for a reliable and efficient plug and perf system is key to driving maximum stages per day. A major component to a high-performance plug and perf system is the release tool. Most ballistic release tools currently available encounter common failures and challenges related to the difficulty of wiring, arming and assembling, limited capability to handle axial stress with increasingly more complex perforating gun assemblies, the lack of maintenance, and the increase in explosive handling, transport and storage.
The PHIRE Escape release tool was developed to address these challenges.
