Abstract: A multi-frequency signal may be used to induce voltage difference across a portion of a pipe. The voltage difference may be induced to take multi-frequency measurement of impedance characteristics of fluid inside the pipe. The multi-frequency measurement of the impedance characteristic of the fluid inside the pipe may be used to determine a characteristic of the fluid inside the pipe. This may be achieved by active integration of experimental data with high-resolution multi-frequency electrical impedance tomography (MFEIT) modeling.

Abstract: A method for determining placement of MFEIT sensors in a horizontal well for detecting producing stages of the horizontal well. Embodiments involve computationally modeling the underlying physics of a well system and performing inversion to identify the MFEIT parameters (locations and conductivity) from electrical impedance measurements.

Abstract: Apparatus includes a plurality of geological subsurface electrical line sensors spaced apart from each other proximate a predetermined geological subsurface region of interest, with at least one of the electrical line sensors situated as a line source to produce a multi-frequency electrical impedance tomography source signal, and with at least one of the electrical line sensors situated as a line detector to receive the multi-frequency electrical impedance tomography response signal associated with the source signal that propagates through the predetermined geological subsurface region of interest, and a controller including a processor and a memory configured with instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to determine an electrical mapping over the predetermined geological subsurface region of interest based on the multi-frequency electrical impedance tomography source signal, response signal, and the spatial positions of the geological subsurface electrical line sensors.
