Fracture Monitoring on Permanent Fiber Optic Cable

DScover™

Discover hidden production using Silixa’s new well surveillance and optimization service

With a fiber permanently installed in your well, you can

  • Optimize your well placement
  • Optimize your completion design
  • Constrain geo-mechanical models and plan more accurately


We know that understanding the dynamics of a fractured reservoir is a challenge. We provide higher confidence results to give you greater understanding of

  • Reservoir depletion
  • Well interference
  • Fracture geometry and network conductivity
  • Production and injection performance

Our new well surveillance and optimization service provides higher confidence results by combining a fully integrated analysis with best-in-class data quality from DAS, DTS and our new DSS measurements

Our customers trust us to provide them with the insights they need to make decisions. The unique advantage of Silixa’s DScover service is that it combines three fundamental requirements that are vital to give our customers higher confidence and enable timely decision making.

1. Higher quality, reliable data:

  • Our suite of world-leading interrogators, including our brand-new iDSS absolute strain sensor, offer the highest fidelity, signal-to-noise ratio and stability of any DFOS interrogators on the market
  • This gives clarity to the smallest details making interpretation and quantification much easier
  • We have a proven track record of success with multiple clients and several repeat jobs over many years
  • Our data and workflows are reliable and give consistent results both for long-term monitoring and from one well to the next

2. High accuracy results

  • Achieved using analysis workflows and interpretation that integrate multiple insights together to tightly constrain the result
  • We combine simultaneous DAS, DTS and new DSS measurements to provide enhanced results over solutions relying on only one of these
  • Our Data Services Group are the industry’s most experienced and highly skilled data analysis and interpretation team
  • Using this intimate domain knowledge, we can achieve accurate results often where others can’t

3. Rapid delivery

  • Real-time data visualization, QC and analysis
  • Fast turnaround time on in-depth, advanced analysis unmatched in the industry
  • 24/7 remote support available for rapid decision making when it matters most
