Abstract
A downhole tool for perforating a wellbore. A slidable plunger valve is provided, biased to cover jetting ports during run-in of the tool. A compressible packer may be provided below the jetting ports, and a jaw member provided below the packer. A 'J' slot and pin arrangement may allow a three-position configuration, namely a run-in position where the packer is uncompressed and jetting ports closed, a set position where the packer is uncompressed and the jaw member forcibly frictionally engaged with the wellbore casing, and a jetting position where the packer is compressed, the tool is supplied with pressurized abrasive fluid, and the plunger valve has uncovered the jetting ports. The plunger valve may be made dual-acting, where during run-in the jetting ports are closed and a bypass port is uncovered, and in the jetting position the jetting ports are open and the bypass port is closed.
