Provided is a detonation interrupt device. The detonation interrupt device, in one aspect, includes a first detonation train member positioned within a housing, and a mechanical member positioned proximate the first detonation train member. In this aspect, the mechanical member is movable between a first position physically separating the first detonation train member from a second detonation train member and thereby preventing the first detonation train member from detonating the second detonation train member, and a second position not physically separating the first detonation train member from the second detonation train member and thereby allowing the first detonation train member to detonate the second detonation train member, wherein the mechanical member is configured to automatically move from the first position to the second position as the housing and the second detonation train member move linearly with respect to each other.

Detonation interrupt device

A perforating system and method includes a perforating gun with shaped charges and an orientation device. The orientation device provides an orientation datum. Sensors associated with the perforating gun detect relative alignment of each perforating gun as compared to the orientation datum. A detonation signal can be either sent or not sent to the perforating gun in response to the signal received from the orientation sensor.
