ABSTRACT:
A system for monitoring a wellbore service treatment, comprising a downhole tool operable to perform the wellbore service treatment; a conveyance connected to the downhole tool for moving the downhole tool in the wellbore, and a plurality of sensors operable to provide one or more wellbore indications and attached to the downhole tool or a component thereof via one or more tethers. A method of monitoring a wellbore service treatment, comprising conveying into a wellbore a downhole tool operable to perform the wellbore service treatment and a plurality of sensors operable to provide one or more wellbore indications attached to the downhole tool or a component thereof via one or more tethers, deploying the downhole tool at a first position in the wellbore for service, treating the wellbore at the first position; and monitoring an at least one wellbore indication provided by the wellbore sensors at the first position.
