DOWNHOLE EM SENSING USING SAGNAC INTERFEROMETER FOR WELLBORE MONITORING

摘要

Method and apparatus are disclosed for use of a fiber-optic sensor loop for use within a wellbore; with a plurality of light sources optically coupled to the fiber-optic sensor loop; at least one electromagnetically sensitized region within the fiber-optic sensor loop; and a plurality of detectors optically coupled to the fiber-optic sensor loop; and using the sensing system to detect changes in a magnetic field within the wellbore.
