Abstract

A coupling agent for deployment around an optical fiber in a subsurface wellbore, the coupling agent including a curable or non-curable compound that can form into a reversible polymerized gel state located around at least a portion of the optical fiber and there is a gel-optical fiber interface strain gradient that is greater than a wellbore fluid-optical fiber strain gradient. A method of deploying an optical fiber in a fluid path of a subsurface wellbore and introducing a coupling agent in the fluid path.
