Abstract:
Many monitoring systems, including distributed fiber optic sensing systems, are deployed to measure temperature, strain, acoustic, pressure, and electromagnetic data in a multi-well hydrocarbon field. By coupling disparate fiber optic cables together for strain sensing, a tubular cable is created that can be spooled and deployed as a single unit while allowing for multi-parameter sensing. Multiple tubular cables can measure and transmit sensing data from wellbores and geological formations. The data can be used to continually update a reservoir model and optimize production efficiency while also managing and mitigating subsidence by controlling injection and production rates.
