Silixa provides distributed fibre optic monitoring solutions with high levels of accuracy on existing or new fibre installations. Our distributed sensing solutions apply the power of real-time distributed acoustic sensing (iDAS™ and Carina® Sensing System) and distributed temperature sensing (ULTIMA™ DTS) to measure and monitor conditions within wellbores and other assets. Our reliable results and proven track record enable our clients to make informed decisions.
Oil & Gas
Our range of downhole sensing applications and enabling technologies make Silixa the right choice for permanent reservoir and well monitoring.
Pipeline Surveillance
Our technology offers continuous pipeline integrity monitoring by simultaneously detecting intrusion and leak events along the pipeline.
Process Metering
Non-intrusive metering for all plant flows with a single fibre, regardless of pipe material or flow type.
Distributed Sensing
Our monitoring solutions provide the highest spatial & temporal resolution for data capture over large surfaces and long lengths.News & Events
Silixa to present on production monitoring improvements from next generation DAS in Aberdeen on 3 October 2017
Garth Naldrett, Silixa’s Chief Product Officer, will be presenting the latest advances in distributed fibre optic sensing and the use of these for production profiling at SPE Aberdeen's 3rd Inwell Flow Surveillance & Control Seminar in Aberdeen, Scotland on 3 October 2017.
He will introduce Carina® Sensing, present the step change in measurement realised with this new sensing system, and demonstrate the opportunities presented by this technology for production flow analysis. Garth will also discuss the use[...]
Silixa to present on multizone, multifluid process flow metering at the Oil Sands Trade Show in Fort McMurray, Canada on September 13, 2017
Silixa’s distributed fibre optic technology enables non-intrusive flow metering of multiple water, slurry, and gas flows on multiple pipes simultaneously using a single, continuous length of optical fibre. This technology is now being used in the minerals mining industry, but has not yet been applied to oil sands operations.
Oil sands operations require significant flow control and adaptive, durable sensors. Silixa’s process metering solution is achieved using low cost, non-intrusive sensing materials which can be easily[...]

Silixa will be exhibiting at the Unconventional Resources Technology Conference in Austin, TX, USA on 24-26 July, 2017
Jointly organized by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) and the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG), the forum has become the premier science-based marketplace for unconventional exploration, drilling and production ideas and technologies.
To see how we can expand your hydraulic fracture monitoring and seismic acquisition options please visit us at our[...]
News & Events
Distributed sensing is a technology that enables continuous, real-time measurements along the entire length of a fibre optic cable. Unlike traditional sensors that rely on discrete sensors measuring at pre-determined points, distributed sensing does not rely upon manufactured sensors but utilises the optical fibre. Read more
