One of our main goals is to promote new technologies that will offer opportunities for improved safety and increased operational efficiency. This is applicable to explosives used in oil and gas producing operations, and more specifically to the use of explosives inside a wellbore. The IPF Safety Chair’s goal is to collect and review incidents and near miss reports related to explosives and associated surface equipment used in oil and gas producing operations electric and electronic detonators, percussion initiators, igniters, delay devices, ballistic transfers, addressable (digital) firing systems and surface equipment associated with the perforating systems. The purpose is to prevent inadvertent and unintentional detonation of explosives, help minimize risks and reduce explosive accidents to zero.

Dear perforating colleagues,
Our thanks again to all who contributed to a successful inaugural issue of the Journal of the IPF in June. We hope that the Journal will be of interest and value to the community. We are pleased to announce that plans are currently underway to publish Volume 2 of the JIPF later this year. You are therefore invited to submit your technical articles here, for publication consideration, now through Sept 30. The planned publication timeline is shown below. Submitted articles will undergo a rigorous peer review process to ensure a high standard technical Journal; the goal being to publish high quality, detailed, technical papers relevant to the science of Oil and Gas Industry perforating.
Thank you in advance, and we look forward to reviewing your submissions!
Best Regards,
John Carminati and Brenden Grove
JIPF Executive Editors
