NON-EXPLOSIVE CO2-BASED PERFORATION TOOL FOR OIL AND GAS DOWNHOLE OPERATIONS

摘要

Methods and systems for perforating a downhole formation which include attaching a CO2 perforating device to a wireline, where the CO2 perforating device may include one or more CO2 filled perforating units. The methods and systems may further include disposing the CO2 perforating device at a depth within a wellbore and detonating the one or more CO2 filled perforating units to perforate one or more surfaces selected from the group consisting of the wellbore casing, cement, and the downhole formation.
