In the complete paper, the authors evaluate the effectiveness of production-enhancement activities for Well B Long-String (i.e., Well BL) using distributed-temperature-sensing (DTS) technology. Installation of permanent fiber-optic cable across the reservoir sections has enabled gas-lift monitoring, identification of well‑integrity issues, and zonal inflow profiling from perforation contribution. The effectiveness of executed remedial jobs is described along with findings and interpretations of DTS results.
