COMPACT GAS GUN
The compact gas gun offers superior performance due to its rugged,
noise-canceling dual-disk microphone.
The compact
gas gun consists of a 10 cubic inch volume chamber and quick opening gas valve. The chamber is
usually filled with carbon dioxide or nitrogen gas to a pressure in excess of the well
pressure. When the valve is opened, a pressure pulse is generated which travels through
the wellbore gas. The chamber can be charged as needed to obtain the desired record.
If
the well pressure is sufficient gas can be released from the well into the volume
chamber to create a pressure pulse (implosion mode). An external gas source is not needed in this
situation. Operating the Compact Gas Gun in the implosion
mode allows debris from the well to be discharged into the gas gun
volume chamber, resulting in greater maintenance requirements and the occasional
replacement of o-rings.
