Surface Test (5 megs): 
This is a video of a GasGun surface test conducted by our Croatian distributor.  A 0.5 meter GasGun was ignited inside perforated pipe.  The perforated pipe was necessary to confine the propellant and allow for a proper burn.  The first explosion is the blasting cap and detonating cord.  The following rush of gas coming out of the holes is the propellant burn. The entire event takes ~2 seconds, but in a well the burn takes only ~20 milliseconds due to higher confining pressures.  The rate of gas coming out of the holes continually increases until the burn is complete.  This is due to the progressive burning properties of our propellant.  To learn more about progressive burning go to:  Progressive Burning

Downhole Video (7 megs):  This video is from a downhole camera used before and after a GasGun stimulation.  The stimulation was conducted in a shallow Berea sandstone well located in Ashland County, Ohio.  The well was an open hole completion which makes it possible to observe the multiple fractures created by the GasGun.
