Abstract

The method includes providing a DAS apparatus. The DAS apparatus includes a fiber optic cable, the fiber optic cable wound or positioned about a pipeline and a DAS interrogator, the DAS interrogator in light communication with the fiber optic cable. The method also includes measuring Rayleigh backscattered light using the DAS interrogator and determining the existence of a slug in the pipeline from the Rayleigh backscattered light, wherein the Rayleigh backscattered light corresponds to a Coherent Rayleigh Noise signal.
