Summary :

This paper reviews the use of fiber optic sensors for downhole monitoring in the oil and gas industry. Due to their multiplexing capabilities and versatility, the use of Bragg grating sensors appears to be particularly suited for this application. Several types of transducer have been developed, each of which can be addressed along a single (common) optical fiber in the well and read-out using a common surface instrumentation system.
