Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] At present, in the process of oil and gas exploration and development, during the vertical well and horizontal well fracturing stage, the main methods for measuring the downhole temperature and pressure of oil and gas wells are optical fiber measurement or pressure gauge measurement through steel wire after fracturing. The optical fiber measurement method uses the changes in optical fiber after being affected by downhole temperature and pressure to transmit signals through the refraction of light after the changes. The signals transmitted by light refraction are easily affected and can only roughly reflect the changes in temperature and pressure. The accuracy is poor and the actual temperature and pressure of the oil and gas well cannot be accurately measured. The pressure gauge measurement method through steel wire operation after fracturing can only collect formation pressure and temperature data, and cannot accurately obtain the temperature and pressure during the fracturing process.
