Abstract

A bearing member assembly used in a wellbore completion operation. The bearing member assembly first comprises a tubular sub. The tubular sub has a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and connection threads residing at each of the first and second ends. The bearing member assembly also comprises an internal bore, and a tapered shoulder residing along the internal bore proximate the second end. The tapered shoulder defines an angle relative to the central axis of the internal bore. The bearing member assembly also comprises a bearing member. The bearing member has a tubular support body wherein an inner diameter forms a bore and an outer diameter serves as a race. A plurality of roller bearings are disposed along the race, engaging the tapered shoulder to serve as a grounding path. A cage secures the roller bearings against the race. A method of grounding a perforating gun assembly is also provided herein.
