Abstract

A method for cementing a borehole includes pumping a collection of fluids into the borehole through a tubular string in the borehole and flowing the collection of fluids up an annulus positioned between the tubular string and a sidewall of the borehole. The method additionally includes monitoring a volume of the fluids pumped into the borehole, and performing a first estimation of a position of the fluids based on the volume of the collection of fluids pumped into the borehole, and an initial estimate of an average diameter of the sidewall of at least a portion of the borehole. The method further includes calculating a corrected estimate of the average diameter based on the first estimation and a pressure of the fluids measured at an inlet of the tubular string, and performing a second estimation of the position of the fluids based on the corrected estimate of the average diameter.
