Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of sensors, and relates to a sapphire fiber optic probe sensor used for measuring the gas holdup rate of an oil well downhole, in particular to a sapphire fiber optic probe sensor used for measuring the gas holdup rate of an oil-gas-water three-phase flow downhole in an oil well. Background technique [0002] Most oilfields in China are continental deposits, characterized by low porosity, low permeability and multi-layer systems. Due to the long-term water injection development, the water content of oil wells has been continuously rising. At present, many oil fields in China are in the high water cut stage with a comprehensive water cut of more than 90%. At this time, if the downhole pressure of the oil well is lower than the bubble point pressure of the oil, natural gas will be precipitated from the oil, thus generating oil, gas and water three-phase flow. In this case, it is necessary to measure the gas holdup of d...
