Zusammenfassung:First fluid flows from a wellbore through a flow assembly and into a casing inserted into the wellbore. An optical cable is arranged on a bobbin attached to a bottom surface of the flow assembly. The optical cable of the flow assembly is released into the flow of the first fluid and is positioned downhole from the flow assembly by the flow of the first fluid. One or more signals are received via the optical cable. A determination is made that an annulus between the casing and a wall of the wellbore is filled with a second fluid based on the one or more signals. Flow of the second fluid is stopped based on the determination.
