A heating and distributed-temperature-sensor cable (200) permanently fixed in a wellbore (106) that permits known amounts of heat to be introduced to subsurface formations (100) and improved temperature measurement thereof. The heat is introduced into a target zone of the wellbore by forming the cable in two sections: an upper section (210) that carries an electrical current without generating significant amounts of heat, and a lower section (230) that generates heat from the electrical current. Continuous distributed-temperature- sensing is performed through measuring various scattering mechanism in optical fibers (250) that run the length of the cable.

L'invention concerne un câble de chauffage et de détection de température distribuée (200), fixé en permanence dans un puits de forage (106), qui permet à des quantités connues de chaleur d'être introduites dans des formations de sous-surface (100) et permet une mesure de température améliorée de celles-ci. La chaleur est introduite dans une zone cible du puits de forage par formation du câble en deux sections : une section supérieure (210) qui porte un courant électrique sans générer de quantités significatives de chaleur, et une section inférieure (230) qui génère de la chaleur à partir du courant électrique. Une détection continue de température distribuée est effectuée par mesure de divers mécanismes de dispersion dans des fibres optiques (250) qui s'étendent sur la longueur du câble.
