Methods of monitoring a force applied to a component (28) in a wellbore (12) following drilling and during a subsequent operation. Methods comprising: providing a string of tubing (35) including a tubular member (46) having at least one sensor (48) for measuring the strain in the tubing, and a device (50) for transmitting data to surface and which is operatively associated with the sensor. Running the string of tubing into the wellbore; monitoring the strain in the tubing measured by the sensor and compensating for the strain. Performing an operation in the well employing the tubing, involving the application of a force to the component in the wellbore; monitoring the resultant change in strain in the tubing measured by the sensor; and transmitting data relating to the resultant change in strain to surface using the data transmission device, to facilitate determination of the force applied to the component. |
