Abstract

"MéTODO PARA MEDIçãO DE FLUXO DE FURO ABAIXO EM UM POçO". Um método para medição de fluxo de furo abaixo compreende instalar um sistema sensor de temperatura distribuída de fibra óptica (DTS) ao longo de pelo menos parte do comprimento de uma região de afluxo do poço e usar o sensor para medir flutuações da temperatura de fluidos fluindo a partir da formação para o interior do poço e a velocidade na qual as ditas flutuações naturais migra na direção a jusante através do poço. As variações de temperatura medidas podem ser flutuações de temperatura de baixa freqüência de entre 0,1 e 0,5 grau Celsius, as quais gradualmente desaparecem a jusante da(s) região(ões) de afluxo do poço."METHOD FOR MEASURING HOLE FLOW BELOW IN A WELL". One method for bore flow measurement below comprises installing a fiber optic distributed temperature sensor (DTS) system along at least part of the length of a well inflow region and using the sensor to measure fluctuating fluid temperature fluctuations. from the formation into the well and the speed at which said natural fluctuations migrate downstream through the well. Measured temperature variations may be low frequency temperature fluctuations of between 0.1 and 0.5 degree Celsius, which gradually disappear downstream of the well inflow region (s).
