On a 550 m brine production well, fiber optic sensing was deployed during the casing installation to monitor long-term strain evolution and temperature. The fiber optic sensing cables were successfully integrated into the cemented annulus, providing a reliable coupling to the structure. Absolute temperature and strain are shown over 3 years.
Let us help you decide how fiber optic sensing will provide the data you need to detect deformation early and help avoid casing failure. Contact us and share your thoughts.
