ABSTRACT:
A portion of at least one fiber is moved into an exterior annulus of a well between a tubular structure in the well and the wall of the borehole of the well such that the portion is placed to conduct a signal responsive to at least one parameter in the exterior annulus. One particular implementation uses fiber optic cable with a cementing process whereby flowing cementing fluid pulls the portion of the cable into the exterior annulus.
