One or more of these thermomechanical properties of an underground formation can be monitored using a monitoring system. An example monitoring system includes a signal processing module, a visualization module, a signal source module, a signal detection module, and one or more optical fibers. Each fiber includes one or more sensors. The signal source module emits an optical signal into one or more optical fibers. The one or more sensors along the fiber interact with the optical signal, and alter the optical signal in response to one or more detected thermomechanical properties. The resulting optical signal is detected by the signal detection module. Based on the detected optical signal, the signal processing module determines the one or more thermomechanical properties that were detected by the sensors. An operator can view and monitor the detected thermomechanical properties using the visualization module. |
