Utah FORGE: Neubrex RFS DSS Fiber Optic Strain Data from Well 16B(78)-32 - August 2025 Circulation and Huff-and-Puff Tests

This dataset contains processed Neubrex Rayleigh Frequency Shift Distributed Strain Sensing data acquired in well 16B(78)-32 at the Utah FORGE site during August 2025 field operations. The data were collected during cross-well circulation testing from well 16A to well 16B and subsequent huff-and-puff testing in well 16B. The tests were executed by Texas Tech University and California State University, Long Beach, with fiber optic monitoring performed using fibers housed in metal tubes inside 1.75-inch coiled tubing deployed in the 16B producer well. General test information, field operations context, depth calibration details, measurement types, and related operational notes are provided in the linked technical report.

The dataset includes RFS DSS strain change and strain change rate measurements in HDF5 format, including versions structured in PRODML. The inspected files include strain data arrays, depth arrays, and time stamp arrays. Strain values are reported in micro-strain, depths are reported in feet, and time stamps are provided in UTC. The associated report describes the broader fiber optic acquisition program, including RFS, DTS, DAS, and Brillouin measurements, as well as the depth calibration workflow used to relate fiber coordinates to well measured depth referenced to Kelly Bushing.
