Claim:
1. A method for downhole fluid measurement, comprising positioning a first sensor within a downhole casing, the first sensor comprising a first flexible material; a first transmitter coupled to the first flexible material; and a first receiver coupled to the first flexible material; generating a first signal within a fluid in the downhole casing using the first transmitter; measuring a first response of the fluid to the first signal using the first receiver; processing the first response to determine at least one parameter of the fluid, wherein the first sensor is one of a radial array of sensors and an azimuthal array of sensors positioned on a first pad extending from a downhole tool; and further comprising positioning second sensor within the downhole casing, the second sensor comprising a second flexible material; and at least one of a second transmitter or a second receiver coupled to the second flexible material.
