Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and apparatus for measuring subterranean strain. The methods and apparatus use fluid expansion principles to compensate for temperature variations and increase the accuracy of the strain measurements. The methods and apparatus contemplate the use of multiple fluid chambers according to some embodiments in order to remove temperature dependence from stress or strain measurements.
