The invention relates to explosive devices and to boring and penetrating the earth. In a modified form of the apparatus, the end charges are omitted and the central charge load alone acts as a perforator for well pipe. Oil and gas recovery from a given strata requires that the strata be permeable, allowing oil or gas from remote areas to migrate toward the well.
