Optical fibers can be used as sensors to measure, , and other quantities by modifying a fiber so that the quantity to be measured modulates the,,, or transit time of light in the fiber. Sensors that vary the intensity of light are the simplest, since only a simple source and detector are required.

These systems use light signals to measure temperature, strain, and acoustic events along a fibre-optic (FO) cable near or attached to a pipeline. DNV is a leader in verifying distributed fibre-optic sensing (DFOS) systems for pipeline leak detection. Tracking PIGs is important, as they can get stuck from time to time, and knowing the location of a stuck brations in the vicinity of the pipeline. Pipeline Leak and Intrusion Detection System (PLIDS) is an optical fiber-based pipeline surveillance system that gives early warnings of any third-party intrusion in the Right of Use (ROU) of buried cross-country pipelines.

The core function of an optical fiber pressure sensor is to convert external mechanical pressure into measurable changes in the optical signals transmitted through the fiber. This process relies on the fiber's unique waveguide structure and the interaction between light and matter. Figure 1 depicts a simplified structure of a non-interferometric fiber optic pressure sensor.
