A novel method utilizing a new mathematical formulation for determining an optimum phase angle for phasing shaped charges in a perforating gun allows a novel perforating apparatus to be designed which phases the shaped charges by an angle equal to the optimum phase angle. Therefore, when the shaped charges detonate and a plurality of perforations are produced in a formation traversed by the wellbore, since the optimum phase angle is used to phase the charges in the perforating gun, the distances between adjacent perforations in the formation are maximized. Since such distances are maximized, the liklihood that a bridge between adjacent perforations will fail is substantially reduced.
