preparation example Construction

[0027] The method for preparing an optical cable provided by the present invention includes forming a fiber paste layer 2, a first protective layer 3, a hydrogen barrier layer 4, and a second protective layer 5 covering the surface of the optical fiber 1 from the inside to the outside.

[0028] The present invention does not specifically limit the method of forming the fiber paste layer 2 and the first protective layer 3. For example, a metal layer can be coated on the outside of the optical fiber 1, and filled between the optical fiber 1 and the metal layer. Hydrogen barrier fiber paste, thereby forming the fiber paste layer 2 and the first protective layer 3. It should be noted that the method of filling the hydrogen barrier fiber paste between the optical fiber 1 and the metal layer may be various existing filling methods, for example, the hydrogen barrier fiber paste may be applied while covering the metal layer. The filling between the optical fiber 1 and the metal layer may...

Embodiment 1

[0041] This embodiment is used to illustrate the preparation of the optical cable provided by the present invention.

Abstract

The invention provides a cable which comprises at least one optical fiber (1), a fiber paste layer (2), a first protective layer (3), a hydrogen blocking layer (4) and a second protective layer (5), wherein the fiber paste layer (2), the first protective layer (3), the hydrogen blocking layer (4) and the second protective layer (5) are sequentially wrapped on the surface of the optical fiber (1) from inside to outside. The invention further provides a manufacture method of the cable. The method includes: sequentially forming the fiber paste layer (2), the first protective layer (3), the hydrogen blocking layer (4) and the second protective layer (5) on the surface of the optical fiber (1) from inside to outside. The cable has excellent hydrogen blocking performance and can meets the requirements of being used in severe environment under wells.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical cable and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The optical cable is mainly composed of optical fiber, plastic protective sleeve and plastic outer sheath. In recent years, optical fiber technology has been widely used in many fields. With the development of optical fiber sensors in the exploitation and application of oil and natural gas, an optical cable that can withstand the same working conditions as the optical fiber sensor is required as the optical communication transmission medium between the downhole optical fiber sensor and the uphole tool. [0003] Because the downhole conditions are very harsh, such as high temperature, high pressure, vibration, corrosion, etc., the optical fiber is easily damaged and fails. More importantly, the hydrogen ions in the working environment can penetrate into the optical cable, which will increase the transmission loss of the optical fiber. Therefore, it is ne...
