"Downhole monitoring plays a crucial part in geological carbon dioxide (2) sequestration. Various downhole monitoring technologies have been explored and applied, but they are either expensive or have system longevity issues. To address this issue, a robust and cost-effective downhole sensing system based on distributed coaxial cable sensors is developed and evaluated in laboratory, and a numerical simulation with staged finite element model is conducted to study the feasibility of using the coaxial cable sensing system for monitoring and evaluation of wellbore stability during CO2 injection.

The real-time distributed sensing system is composed of Fabry-Perot interferometer based …
