  • Publication number: 20240151125
    Abstract: A system for treating a plurality of adjacent wells having casing includes a wireline, perforating equipment, and a fiber-optic interrogator. The wireline has at least one optical fiber disposed along its length. At least one optical fiber is configured as a distributed acoustic sensor. The perforating equipment includes a perforating gun that can couple to a termination of the wireline. Run downhole on the wireline, the perforating gun can perforate the casing. The fiber-optic interrogator is configured to couple to another termination of the wireline. The fiber-optic interrogator is configured to interrogate the at least one optical fiber for distributed acoustic sensing. The wireline deployed in a well with the perforating gun can remain in the well, while an adjacent well is stimulated to produce hydraulic fracture. During the stimulation, the fiber-optic wireline is used for distributed acoustic sensing during the fracture operation of the adjacent well.
