The use of fiber-optic sensing and its capabilities are being maximized now more than ever within the energy industry. Traditional measurements typically rely on discrete sensors that measure at certain points, whereas distributed sensing technology uses fiber-optic strands as the sensor. This enables continuous, real-time measurements to be captured along the entire length of a fiber-optic strand.

Abstract: Cutting-edge technological advancements have turned many electronic devices into waste within a short time of usage. Electronic waste (e-waste) has become a global problem. Due to the adverse impact of e-waste on the environment and human health, a regulatory system for effective collection and treatment of e-waste disposed of by the community and business sectors is in dire need. In an attempt to address the setbacks and cope with e-waste issues, this study determined factors that influence e-waste recycling intentions (ERIs) and e-waste recycling behavior (ERB) among consumers in Malaysia through the lens of an extended theory of planned behavior (TPB) model. Via an online survey, 159 questionnaires were collected from targeted respondents in Malaysia aged 18 years and above identified using the purposive sampling method. The structural equation modeling (SEM) approach was deployed for data analysis. As a result, moral obligation (MO) emerged as the most significant factor toward ERI, followed by perceived convenience (PC). Next, ERI displayed a significant effect on ERB. The multi-group analysis (MGA) outcomes revealed significant group differences in education variables, signifying that the lower/middle education group was more easily influenced to perform ERB than the higher education group. Essentially, this study contributes to many aspects especially in enhancing the awareness of e-waste issues and emphasizing the broad knowledge about e-waste recycling. This study provides practical implications for the government, the policymakers and all stakeholders, including consumers, non-government agencies, collectors, retailers, and recycling facilities. The study outcomes may be considered when formulating laws and regulations to enhance e-waste recycling efforts that guarantee a sustainable ecosystem in the future. Keywords: electronic waste (e-waste); theory of planned behavior (TPB); e-waste recycling behavior (ERB); awareness of environmental consequences (AEC); perceived convenience (PC); moral obligation (MO)

Flowback monitoring and more—Flowback monitoring can be the first indication of reservoir performance after stimulation and provides important inputs to validate stimulation models and success. For coiled-tubing-, wireline-, and permanently deployed fiber optics, it is now possible to have the fiber in the well during regular hydraulic fracturing and matrix acidizing while continuing to monitor the flowback immediately after stimulation. Having flowback insights in relevant time can assist in optimizing field development.

Injection monitoring—Understanding injection across your reservoir is a foundational step in predicting the production for unconventional plays. Uniform injection can also be critical for the performance and economics of CCS, geothermal, and saltwater disposal projects. You can also use fiber optics to monitor out-of-zone injection (OOZI) to verify caprock integrity and identify whether new fractures are created during injection. Optiq solutions enable a common experience across all your injection monitoring projects.

Well integrity assessment—We don’t just stop at locating the leak in your completions. We have the ability to understand the cause and remediate accordingly by combining high- and low-frequency fiber-optic data with our wireline ultrasonic, spectroscopy, and caliper corrosion measurements.
