Abstract: Various embodiments include methods and apparatus structured to install an optical fiber cable into a well at a well site. In a from-bottom-to-top embodiment, an anchor deployed at a selected location in a hole of the well can be used and the optical fiber cable can be pulled up to a surface of the well from the selected location. In a from-top-to-bottom embodiment, an optical fiber cable can be moved down from the surface until an end of the optical fiber cable is locked at a selected location by a catcher disposed at the selected location. With the optical fiber cable in the well, a portion of the optical fiber cable can be coupled to surface instrumentation. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods can be implemented in a variety of applications.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for improving the performance of downhole Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) systems by simultaneous use of co-propagating and counter-propagating Distributed Raman Amplification (DRA). It uses a surface DRA system with a surface DAS system to combine their laser sources where the distal end of the downhole sensing fiber use a Wavelength Division Multiplexer (WDM) to optically split the DRA and DAS signals onto two optical fibers. The DAS fiber/signal is terminated with a low reflectance termination to minimize a potential back reflection whereas the DRA fiber is terminated with a high reflectance termination causing all the light to reflect back up the sensing fiber. This arrangement allows for simultaneous co and counter-propagating DRA of the DAS signals, both the transmitted pulse and the back scattered light, thus creating the maximum amount of gain possible.

Abstract: A cable introduction assembly that can include: a spool assembly including a spool having a first axis, the spool configured to retain a cable wound around the first axis in an undeployed mode; and a spool mount assembly configured to retain the spool and introduce the cable in a deployed mode into a conduit configured for a downhole environment, the conduit having a proximal end and a distal end, the cable in the deployed mode extending from the proximal end towards the distal end, wherein the spool assembly is configured to provide a handedness to the cable in the deployed mode.

Abstract: A cable for use in a wellbore can include an outer housing and a chamber disposed coaxially within the outer housing. The chamber can have a cross-sectional end length that is substantially the same as an inner diameter of the outer housing. The cable can also include a fiber optic cable disposed in a nonlinear arrangement within the chamber. The cable can also include a conductor disposed adjacent to the chamber within the outer housing. The conductor can be usable for transmitting power to a well tool.

Abstract: A system of translatable electro acoustic technology (EAT) modules for deployment along an oil or gas wellbore casing comprises: a wireline/slickline optical distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) cable deployed from the surface into the casing and connected to a surface interrogator; a tractor attached to the downhole end of the wireline/slickline optical distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) cable; and one or more EAT sensing modules that can be coupled to or decoupled from the wireline/slickline optical distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) cable at pre-selected locations and can either be coupled to or decoupled from the casing of the wellbore or be allowed to reposition along the wellborn casing, wherein the one or more EAT sensing modules can conduct multiple measurements and communicate the results via the wireline/slickline optical distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) cable to the surface interrogator.
