FOMON - Fiber-Optic Monitoring
Integrity analysis at the speed of light
Our mission is to plan, execute and analyze fiber-optic monitoring campaigns in challenging industral applications. We are experts in designing and implementing monitoring solutions for borehole applications and road construction. Our unique patented distributed fluid shear stress sensor allows to derive fluid rheological properties (density and viscosity) with high accuracy - in real time. After having successfully conducted numerous borehole installations in past and ongoing research projects, we now offer our expertise under the name of FOMON.
News
First permanent installation for road monitoring
Late Summer 2023The first permanent monitoring station was installed and put into operation by FOMON to assess the road integrity in real-time.
Commissioning of Pilot Test Site in road construction
November 2022FOMON successfully conducted a feasibility study to investigate the potential of fiber-optic technology for monitoring of asphalt roads together with our project partner Autobahn GmbH.
FOMON booth at EGC 2022
17th - 21st of October 2022The European Geothermal Congress EGC is the largest geothermal event in Europe and our team from FOMON was represented with a booth!
We are proud to announce that our experimental study on our novel distributed viscosity sensor was recently published in a scientific journal!
First trails in road monitoring
June 2022Next to borehole monitoring, FOMON is currently performing first tests for street integrity analysis.
We installed two fiber-optic cables behind casing of a well for aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES)
About
We are an experienced team of young scientists and engineers that dedicate their research focus on the application of distributed sensing technology in the field of wellbore applications. Our team integrates in depth knowledge and experience both on the monitoring site as well as the wellbore engineering site. We use existing measurement units available on the market and refine their capabilities to our demand. This means we provide tailor-made data analysis. At FOMON, we provide a unique technological approach that allows to derive fluid rheological parameters such as density and fluid viscosity in real time. Under the name of FOMON, we canalize our know-how to offer our innovative solutions to you.Our service
