Well-SENSE
Well-SENSE is a innovative technology business delivering ultra-light fibre-optic intervention services to a cross-sector energy market around the world.
FiberLine Intervention (FLI) from Well-SENSE uses bare fibre-optic technology to capture distributed temperature and acoustic measurements along the entire length of the well in real time. The data creates a rich well profile and can monitor changing conditions, irregularities, anomalies or events, to deliver greater insight for completion, production, integrity and abandonment operations.
Compared to other forms of well surveillance, the cost and run-time are dramatically reduced. Surveys can be completed in just a few hours, requiring only one person at the wellsite. The equipment is hand-portable, compact and lightweight with a tiny wellsite footprint. The FLI probe and fibre are single-use and sacrificial so can be left in the well at the end of the survey.
FLI has three key attributes:
- Surveys are fast: Typically, rig-up to rig-down takes just a few hours, reducing surveillance time by up to 80%.
- The footprint is tiny: FLI uses very little space and few services at the well site making it ideal for difficult to access wells, crowded facilities and offline intervention, while reducing the CO2 footprint.
- Datasets are information rich: Speed and simplicity do not come at the expense of capability. Quality, distributed data is rapidly processed to inform future actions, improving operational efficiency and outcome.
