Fiber Optic Thermal Slug Experiments Conducted at Texas Tech University - Report
The report details a thermal circulation test at Red Raider #2 at the Oil Field Technology Center (OTC) involving staged hot water injections and distributed temperature sensing (DTS) fiber optic measurements. It includes experimental setup, fluid flow and temperature data, thermal slug velocity calculations, and simulation results from Schlumberger's OLGA simulator.
