DAS and DVS technology uses optical fibers to monitor and analyze acoustic signals generated by downhole activities, such as hydraulic fracturing, drilling and production. This can be useful for detecting a number of characteristics relevant to well production and pipeline integrity. Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) utilizes multi-mode Fiber Optic cables to. Fiber optics solutions from Baker Hughes give you detailed, real-time data on the condition and performance of your downhole artificial lift tools—data you can use to make informed decisions to prolong run life, minimize interventions, and optimize production. Our SureVIEW™ Fiber Downhole Cable. Distributed fiber optic sensing (DFOS) leverages the scattering of light within an optical fiber to monitor physical changes along its length. It relies primarily on three types of backscattering phenomena: Rayleigh scattering (used in DAS) – sensitive to micro-vibrations and pressure-induced. The upstream oil and gas industry has largely resolved crippling technical challenges that shortened the life of fiber-optic cables in downhole applications and is now working on a big encore. Since 2008, SageRider has become a leader in this field of optical sensing systems.
