What is a Hydraulic Tubing Punch?
The Hydraulic Tubing Punch is used to punch a hole into tubing without the use of detonators. The tool provides a source of achieving well communication between tubing and annulus. The tool is activated by downward jarring, which activates the tool thus creating hydraulic pressure strong enough to puncture the tubing walls. This controlled communication between the tubing and annulus is crucial for various well operations such as fluid injection, production optimization, or well intervention activities.
Applications
- Perforating the tubing walls, creating openings for fluid flow or communication between the tubing and annulus.
- Providing a controlled means of punching holes in the tubing.
Key Features & Benefits
- Does not require the use of detonators to operate.
- Compatible with different types and sizes of tubing commonly used in oil and gas wells.
- Robust and simple operation.
