Utah FORGE: Report on Fiber Optic Monitoring of August 2025 Circulation and Huff and Puff Tests
This is a technical report on the acquisition, processing and analysis of fiber optic data collected in the Utah FORGE 16B(78)-32 well during cross well circulation tests and huff and puff testing that were executed by Texas Tech University and California Statue University Long Beach in August, 2025. The fiber optics were carried to the bottom of the cased hole section via an instrumented coiled tubing pipe. Continuous monitoring of these operations were made using RFS DSS (distributed strain detection), DTS (distributed temperature sensing) and DAS (distributed acoustic sensing). These efforts and results provide continuous data through time at high spatial resolution along the entire cased hole section of production well 16B.
