A method of logging a well can include conveying an optical waveguide and at least one signal generator with a conveyance into the well, causing the signal generator to generate at least one signal in the well, and receiving the signal as distributed along the optical waveguide. A well logging system can include a conveyance with an optical waveguide, and at least one signal generator which is conveyed by the conveyance into a well with the optical waveguide, whereby the signal generator generates at least one signal received with the optical waveguide.

A downhole sensing system includes an optical sensor that provides a light signal with at least one attribute related to a downhole parameter. The system also includes a parametric amplification module that amplifies the light signal using squeezed or entangled light for internal mode input. The system also includes a processing unit that determines a value for the downhole parameter based on the amplified light signal.

Methods for determining a density of a fluid are provided. The method can include passing the fluid through a conduit, measuring a vibration of the conduit by distributed acoustic sensing via a fiber optic cable coupled to the conduit, and generating a vibrational signal indicative of the measured vibration. At least a portion of the vibration of the conduit can be produced by the fluid passing therethrough. The method can also include measuring a temperature of the conduit and generating a temperature signal indicative of the temperature. The method can further include calculating the density of the fluid passing through the conduit by using the vibrational signal and the temperature signal.

An illustrative downhole sensing system includes a phase-squeezer assembly, an interferometer with a downhole sensor on the sensing path, and a receiver. The phase squeezer assembly provides a phase-squeezed laser beam, preferably with a squeeze parameter greater than 2. Certain embodiments include a pulse generator that gates the phase-squeezed laser beam to form a sequence of phase-squeezed laser pulses, and may further include a compensator that converts the sequence of pulses into a sequence of double pulses with a slight frequency shift between the pulses in each pair. The interferometer conveys a reference portion of the phase-squeezed laser beam along a reference path and a sensing portion of the phase-squeezed laser beam along a sensing path. A downhole sensor along the sensing path provides the sensing portion of the phase-squeezed laser beam with a measurement-parameter dependent phase shift relative to the reference portion of the phase-squeezed laser beam, which is measured by the receiver.
