In recent years, the field of structure monitoring has been making increasing use of systems based on fiber-optic technologies. Fiber-optic technology offers many advantages, including higher quality measurements, greater reliability, easier installation and maintenance, insensitivity to the environment (mainly to the electromagnetic field), corrosion resistance, safety in explosive and flammable environments, the possibility of long-term monitoring and lower cost per lifetime. We have used SOFO fibre-optic strain gauges to perform measurements to check the overall relative deformation of a real reinforced concrete structure. Long-term monitoring of the structure revealed that the measurement readings obtained from these fibre-optic strain gauges differed from each other. Greater attention was therefore paid to the calibration of the fibre-optic strain gauges, and to determining their measurement accuracy. The experimental results show that it is necessary to calibrate SOFO strain gauges before they are used, and to determine their calibration constant.

The main goal of the paper is demonstration of permanent downhole long-term monitoring capabilities for oil and gas production profile along horizontal wellbore in case of natural flow. The informational basis of the results obtained is the data of long-term temperature and acoustic monitoring in the borehole using a distributed fiber-optic sensor (DTS + DAS). Materials and methods. At the same time, flowing bottom-hole pressure and surface rates were monitored at the well for rate transient analysis, as well as acoustic cross-well interference testing [1], based on the results of which “well-reservoir” system properties were evaluated, the cross-well reservoir properties of the were estimated, and the possibility of cross-well testing using downhole DTS-DAS equipment was justified. The research results made it possible to assess reliability of DTS-DAS long-term monitoring analysis results in case of multiphase inflow and multiphase wellbore content. In particular, DTS-DAS results was strongly affected by the phase segregation in the near-wellbore zone of the formation. Conclusions. In the process of study, the tasks of inflow profile for each fluid phase evaluation, as well as its changes during the well production, were solved. The reservoir intervals with dominantly gas production have been reliably revealed, and the distribution of production along the wellbore has been quantified for time periods at the start of production and after production stabilization.

This work reports on the application of a distributed fiber-optic strain sensor for long-term monitoring of a railway tunnel affected by an active earthflow. The sensor has been applied to detect the strain distribution along an optical fiber attached along the two walls of the tunnel. The experimental results, relative to a two-year monitoring campaign, demonstrate that the sensor is able to detect localized strains, identify their location along the tunnel walls, and follow their temporal evolution.
