Distributed Acoustic Sensors (DAS) are a revolutionary photonic sensing technology that convert an optical-fiber into a linear array of discrete vibration sensors.
- BENEFITS OF DAS TECHNOLOGY
- Non-intrusive due to the small size - ideal for permanent installation
- High pressure (up to 30 kpsi) and high temperature resistance (up to 300 degC) with no in-well power
- Quickly acquire a large amount of data with long antenna (up to 10 km)
- Improved spatial sampling (down to 0.67 meter)
- Lower cost and easier permanent deployment
- Combinable with conventional electronic based sensing and measurement systems
- APPLICATIONS
- 3D/4D VSP on permanently installed fibers
- VSP on permanently installed fiber and on hybrid wireline
