A detonation module for a perforation tool includes an end that may receive and couple to a ballistic transfer unit of the perforation tool, a detonator, a switch circuit electrically coupled to the detonator, an electrical contact electrically coupled to the switch circuit, and an electrically conductive, compressive member that may couple to the ballistic transfer unit of the perforation tool and form a compressive electrical connection between the electrical contact and the ballistic transfer unit. The electrical contact is disposed between the detonator and the electrically conductive, compressive member.

A transportable well completion tool is described. The transportable well completion tool comprises a housing with a charge module disposed within the housing. The charge module comprises explosive charges. An initiator module comprising a detonator is coupled to the housing, and a bulkhead member is disposed within the housing between the initiator module and the charge module. A containment cover is secured to the housing to cover the detonator. The transportable well completion tool can be transported with the containment cover in place, and the containment cover can be removed to connect the well completion tool to a tool string for downhole deployment.

A reloadable, reusable, downhole interlocking gun and perforation system having two interlocking bodies that each include multiple receivers and barrels. The interlocking bodies are configured to interlock together with each other so that a receiver of one of the interlocking bodies is aligned with a corresponding barrel of the other of the interlocking bodies. Each of the receivers is configured to receive a respective projectile for firing out of the barrel that is aligned with the receiver.
