Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I use the PurpleFire™ perforating gun for fracking operations?
When you use the PurpleFire™ perf gun and 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.
Why should I use PurpleFire™ PinPoint?
PinPoint is the only plug-and-play internal orienting gun available. It’s shorter than most internal orienting wireline perforating guns, it doesn’t need onsite wiring, and you get a better connection through the triple-redundant grounding system. We can’t think of any reason why you wouldn’t want to make the switch to a better product—can you?
Do I need to use your perforating guns and plugs together?
Nope. We designed PurpleSeal™ frac plugs to integrate with some of the industry’s most popular completion tools so you can customize your gun string. But PurpleFire™ is so good, we really don’t know why you’d want to use any other fracking perforating gun for oil and gas completions.
Do I need to use your setting tools with your wireline perforating gun?
No, our perforating systems are designed to run with all setting tools on the market. Still, it’s pretty damn convenient to get your setting tools from the same place you get your frac plugs and perf guns. We especially recommend our PurpleSet™ single-use setting tools because they don’t need any manual bleeding, cleaning, rebuilding or recertification to use. Just place the used setting tool in the same crate as used perforating guns after use.
What shaped charge can I use with your perforating guns?
We designed our perf guns to work with any charges commonly found on the market. So whatever your plug-and-perf solution looks like, it can accommodate your preferred charge.
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.
