Claim Text:
1. A method for installing multiple pressure transducers, and other downhole sensor systems at desired locations in unrolled coiled tubing, comprising: laying unrolled coiled tubing out parallel to the ground; extending a pull cable attached to a pull cable winch through the unrolled coiled tubing from a heel (tophole) end of the unrolled coiled tubing to a toe (downhole) end of the unrolled coiled tubing; mounting each of the to be deployed pressure transducers to the end of a FIMT (fiber in metal tubing); with each of the pressure transducer laid out with their correct spacing at the toe (downhole) end for the desired locations; positioning additional FIMTs for the other downhole sensor systems; connecting each of the FIMTs to the pull cable; and using the pull cable winch to pull the pull cable and each of the pressure transducer connected to the FIMT and the additional FIMTs into the unrolled coiled tubing, thus installing the multiple pressure transducers and other downhole sensor systems at the desired locations in the unrolled coiled tubing; wherein as each of the to be deployed pressure housings enters the coiled tubing the FIMTs and pull cable are positioned to fit into bypass grooves on the exterior of the pressure housings as the FIMTs and the pull cable pass into the unrolled coned tubing.
