Differential pressure sub

VGS Differential pressure sub is used to achieve an underbalance perforating condition between tubing and the formation. The sub has a thin high strength ceramic disc which prevents communication between the tubing and the annulus until a drop bar released from the surface breaks it. Ports located below the disc allow the fluid to flow into the tubing and circulate after the perforation. A non-ported version is available for pulse cleaning of perforations.

Design feature and application:

  • Reliable cost effective tool to achieve underbalance.
  • Differential pressure up to 68 MPa on the convex side.
  • Ported version provides large flow area.
  • Ceramic disc acts as a debris catch.
  • Can be run with any packer.
  • Available in standard EUE thread.
