A perforating gun assembly for use in a wellbore. The perforating gun assembly includes a carrier gun body and a charge holder disposed within the carrier gun body. A plurality of shaped charges are supported within the carrier gun body. A secondary pressure generator is operably associated with at least one of the shaped charges. The secondary pressure generator optimizes the wellbore pressure regime immediately after detonation of the shaped charges by controlling the dynamic underbalance created by the empty gun chambers to prevent excessive dynamic underbalance which may detrimentally effect the perforating operation.

1. A perforating gun assembly for use in a wellbore, the perforating gun assembly comprising: a carrier gun body;a charge holder disposed within the carrier gun body;a plurality of shaped charges supported within the carrier gun body by the charge holder; andat least one secondary pressure generator
1. A perforating gun assembly for use in a wellbore, the perforating gun assembly comprising: a carrier gun body;a charge holder disposed within the carrier gun body;a plurality of shaped charges supported within the carrier gun body by the charge holder; andat least one secondary pressure generator disposed within the carrier gun body, the secondary pressure generator reducing a dynamic underbalanced condition in the wellbore by increasing a pressure condition in the carrier gun body upon activation. 2. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises a reactive material. 3. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator is selected from the group consisting of zinc, aluminum, bismuth, tin, calcium, cerium, cesium, hathium, iridium, lead, lithium, palladium, potassium, sodium, magnesium, titanium, zirconium, cobalt, chromium, iron, nickel, tantalum, depleted uranium and combination, alloys, carbides and hydrides of these materials. 4. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises a mixed rare earth alloy. 5. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises mischmetal. 6. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises a mixture of powdered metals. 7. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises thermite. 8. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 7 wherein the thermite is selected from the group consisting of boron(III) oxide, silicon(IV) oxide, chromium(III) oxide, manganese(IV) oxide, iron(III) oxide, iron(II, III) oxide, copper(II) oxide, lead(II, III, IV) oxide and combinations thereof. 9. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises a fluorine compound. 10. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises nanoparticles. 11. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator is formed as at least a portion of a coating of the carrier gun body, the charge holder, and a thermobaric container positioned within the carrier gun body. 12. The perforating gun assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises a pyrophoric material. 13. A wellbore pressure control assembly for use during a perforating operation in a wellbore, the wellbore pressure control assembly comprising: a substantially tubular body;at least one explosive charge disposed within the tubular body; andat least one secondary pressure generator disposed within the tubular body, the secondary pressure generator including nanoparticles, the secondary pressure generator reducing a dynamic underbalanced condition in the wellbore by increasing a pressure condition in the tubular body upon activation. 14. A wellbore pressure control assembly as recited in claim 13 wherein the at least one explosive charge is one of a shaped charge and a punch charge. 15. The wellbore pressure control assembly as recited in claim 13 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises a reactive material. 16. The wellbore pressure control assembly as recited in claim 13 wherein the secondary pressure generator is selected from the group consisting of zinc, aluminum, bismuth, tin, calcium, cerium, cesium, hafnium, iridium, lead, lithium, palladium, potassium, sodium, magnesium, titanium, zirconium, cobalt, chromium, iron, nickel, tantalum, depleted uranium and combination, alloys, carbides and hydrides of these materials. 17. The wellbore pressure control assembly as recited in claim 13 wherein the secondary pressure generator further comprises thermite. 18. The wellbore pressure control assembly as recited in claim 17 wherein the thermite is selected from the group consisting of boron(III) oxide, silicon(IV) oxide, chromium(III) oxide, manganese(IV) oxide, iron(III) oxide, iron(II, III) oxide, copper(II) oxide, lead(II, III, IV) oxide and combinations thereof.
