Oil perforation in an oilfield refers to the process of creating holes in the casing of a wellbore to allow oil and gas to flow into the well from the surrounding rock formations. This is typically done using perforating guns, which are equipped with explosive charges that create perforations at specific depths. The technique is crucial for enhancing production by connecting the reservoir to the well. Proper perforation design is essential to optimize flow rates and minimize damage to the reservoir.

Do open hole completions include perforation?

Open-hole completions DO NOT include perforation because the casing in this kind of completion is drilled to the top of the oil reservoir and is not sealed at the bottom. The completion that includes perforation is cased-hole because the case must be inserted to the hydrocarbon supply. The perforations then allow the minerals to enter the wellstream.
