A tubing conveyed perforating apparatus is shown which includes a tubular firing section which carries a plurality of explosive charges. The explosive charges are initially aligned with regions of reduced wall area provided in a tubular firing section which initially surrounds the charges. A piston sleeve is mounted on the exterior of the firing section. The piston sleeve has a plurality of apertures which are initially aligned with the regions of reduced wall area in the tubular firing section and thus with the explosive charges. Detonation of the charges causes the piston sleeve to shift so that the piston sleeve apertures are out of alignment with openings formed in the tubular firing section by the detonation of the charges, thereby trapping any resulting debris within the interior of the tubular firing section. Firing of the explosive charges opens upper and lower circulating ports so that sand or other debris can be reverse circulated up the interior of the well string to the well surface. A piston actuated retrieving head can be utilized to engage and retrieve a sealing plug from a sump packer within the well bore. |
