A bottom hole assembly (BHA) operable to be conveyed within a wellbore extending into a subterranean formation from a wellsite surface via coiled tubing. The BHA may operable to receive a fluid pumped from the wellsite surface via the coiled tubing. The BHA may include a fluid control tool comprising a first fluid passage extending longitudinally through the fluid control tool and a plurality of first fluid outlets extending radially between the first fluid passage and the wellbore. The fluid control tool may be selectively operable to close the first fluid passage and open the plurality of first fluid outlets to pass the fluid into the wellbore via the plurality of first fluid outlets, and close the plurality of first fluid outlets and open the first fluid passage to pass the fluid through first fluid passage. The BHA may further include a tractor operable to move the BHA along the wellbore coupled downhole from the fluid control tool. The tractor may have a second fluid passage fluidly connected with the first fluid passage. The BHA may also include a fluid outlet sub coupled downhole from the tractor having a plurality of second fluid outlets fluidly connected with the first fluid passage and extending radially outward to fluidly connect the second fluid passage and the wellbore, and a bent sub coupled downhole from the fluid outlet sub and operable for steering the BHA.
