SPAN Rock analysis incorporated high-quality acoustic measurements by the Sonic Scanner platform to fully
account for the depth of alteration and geomechanics of the formation. The recommended PowerJet Nova
extradeep penetrating charges successfully penetrated beyond the alteration zone.
Formation Evaluation
CASE STUDY: Perforating skin reduced >60% using Sonic Scanner platform data, Colombia
Following the perforating operation using the specified PowerJet Nova charges, the perforated
zone was tested with the drillstring still in the well. The log-log plot of the first derivative matched
to the test parameters determined that the resulting skin was only 0.766, which is a more than
60% reduction from the modeled conventional perforations to a value with practically no adverse
effect on flow performance. Perforation penetration beyond the alteration zone and the reduced
skin confirmed the benefits of including Sonic Scanner platform’s geomechanical data in the
perforating design.

Analysis of the drillstem test conducted after perforating indicated a total skin of only 0.766, which is a more than
60% reduction from the skin estimated for conventional perforating. T = time, p = pressure, C = wellbore storage
constant, k = permeability, h = height.
