Abstract
A system for controlling a dynamic pressure transient in a well during operations to provide fluid communication between the wellbore and adjacent formation. A method includes determining the characteristics of an adjacent formation, selecting a perforating tool for increasing fluid communication, determining a dynamic pressure transient to enhance the quality of the fluid communication and prevent damage, selecting a wellbore fluid to achieve the desired pressure transient, and performing the fluid communication process based on the selected parameters.
