Frequently Asked Questions
What software pairs with PinPoint?
Use Warrior System with Unifire to pair with PinPoint internal orienting guns.
What addressable switch can I use?
We can configure our systems to run with most wired switches. That said, we recommend using SRS switches due to their communication system, support, and track record of success.
What shaped charge can I use?
Our systems are designed to work with any available charges on the market. For extra convenience, you can get Forcellant power charges delivered along with your PinPoint guns.
What differentiates Repeat Precision’s offerings in the perforating market?
When you work with Repeat Precision, you get the best service in the industry—anytime, anywhere, completely free of charge. Our technical personnel hand-deliver your products to the site for that extra level of attention. And when you have questions, you can always ask the person who knows the answer, whether they designed the system or just delivered it.
What setting tool can I use with your systems?
Our systems are designed to run with all setting tools. We especially recommend disposable setting tools because they expose the bottom hole assembly to a certain amount of force during plug setting.
Do you offer an internally oriented perforating system?
Yes, PinPoint utilizes internal weighting to orient the charge assembly by utilizing gravity.
Why should I choose PinPoint?
Other internal orienting systems struggle with communication due to inconsistent connection caused by weak grounding, usually through the use of bearings, brushes, or grounding springs. Unlike these other systems, PinPoint offers a triple-redundant grounding system that grounds directly to the sub. The precisely machined surface provides the most robust electrical integrity, giving you a better connection.
