  • Publication number: 20250347879
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a tubing assembly can include a coiled tubing and a fiber optic assembly disposed within a flow path of the coiled tubing. The fiber optic assembly can include at least one optical fiber in a coupled electro-optical package. The at least one optical fiber can be in intimate contact with an enclosure of the coupled electro-optical package. The fiber optic assembly can also include an insulation layer disposed about the enclosure. The fiber optic assembly can also include a layer of helically wound metal strands disposed about the insulation layer. The fiber optic assembly can also include an outer metal layer disposed about the layer of helically wound metal strands.

  • Patent number: 12321028
    Abstract: Cables that include a conductor and an optical fiber. In some embodiments, the cable can include an optical fiber loosely disposed within an enclosure. A conductor layer can be disposed about the enclosure. An insulation layer can be disposed about the at least one conductor layer. An inner layer of armor strength members can be helically disposed about the insulation layer. An outer layer of armor strength members can be helically disposed about the inner layer of armor strength members. The armor strength members in the outer layer of armor strength members can be at an opposite helix compared to the armor strength members in the inner layer of armor strength members. An outer jacket can be disposed about the outer layer. In other embodiments, the cable can include an optical fiber in a coupled electro-optical package, where the conductor layer can be disposed about the electro-optical package.
