CERTIFICATION
Type of Certification: [ X ] Self [ ] Third Party
I certify that these tests were made according to the procedures as outlined in API RP 43: Recommended Practices for Evaluation of Well Perforators, Fifth Edition, January 1991. All of the equipment used in these
tests, such as the guns, jet charges, detonator cord, etc., was standard with our company for use in the gun being tested, and was not changed in any manner for the test. Furthermore, the equipment was chosen at
random from stock and therefore will be substantially the same as the equipment which would be furnished to perforate a well for any operator.
