Directional sensitive fiber optic cable wellbore system
Abstract:
A fiber optic cable assembly includes an elongate housing, a plurality of fiber optic cables placed inside the housing and extending longitudinally, and acoustic isolating material placed inside the housing and extending longitudinally. The acoustic isolating material includes a plurality of outwardly radially extending arms extending from a center of the housing towards a circumference of the housing. The plurality of arms divides a space inside the housing into a plurality of acoustically isolated sections. Each acoustically isolated section extends longitudinally. Each acoustically isolated section includes at least one of the plurality of fiber optic cables. Each acoustically isolated section is acoustically insulated from remaining sections of the plurality of acoustically isolated sections. A surface of the acoustic isolating material of each acoustically isolated section is covered by acoustic reflective material.
