Disclosed is a method for producing an optical fiber coil including the following steps: a. symmetrical winding of an optical fiber around a shaft, the winding forming a pattern including a same number N of layers of each half of the optical fiber, one layer including a set of turns of optical fiber and spaces between adjacent turns, the winding forming a sectored arrangement including a regular stacking area including at least one continuous sealing surface between two layers of adjacent turns, and an overlap area where portions of optical fiber linking different turns cross each other; b. infiltration of a glue through an external surface of the overlap area in such a way that the glue infiltrates into the spaces located between adjacent turns in the regular stacking area.
