SmartStart PLUS™ Time Delay Test + Frac Valve is a time delayed pressure-activated sliding sleeve that eliminates the need for tubing-conveyed perforating when completing the toe stage of horizontal wells. This allows the operator to meet maximum casing pressure test requirements.

Delivers clean, open tunnels independent of rock type. Every tunnel receives its own cleaning action, independent of other perforations, resulting in a much greater percentage of clean tunnels and ideal flow path between undamaged reservoir and the wellbore.

The patented FracPlane® system uses angled perforations to place fracture initiation points on the same plane near wellbore. By connecting transversely to the fracture planes, every hole feeds the fracture.
