How does the engine handle different conveyance methods?

The engine uses `calculate_system_capacity` to verify if a gun weight is safe for either wireline or TCP (Tubing Conveyed Perforating) based on specified weight limits.

Can I predict penetration depth for specific rock types?

Yes, by using `evaluate_penetration_capability`, you can adjust the base performance of a charge using a formation hardness multiplier to predict effective depth.

What information is needed to recommend a gun system?

To use `select_optimal_system`, you need the casing internal diameter, the minimum required penetration depth, and the intended conveyance method.

This MCP server provides an intelligent decision engine for oil and gas completion operations. It allows AI agents to calculate penetration depth, evaluate system capacity for wireline or TCP deployment, and recommend the best gun configuration. By using select_optimal_system, agents can match casing diameters and formation hardness to specific shaped charge performance metrics.
