Abstract
Systems and methods include a laser tool for ablating solid materials in a wellbore. The laser tool includes a housing having a first end and a second end opposite the first end; a laser head attached to a side of the housing between the first end and the second end. The laser head is optically coupled to a laser source and includes optical elements configured to focus a laser beam to ablate the solid materials. The laser tool includes a packer adjacent to the first end of the housing configured to form a seal between the housing and interior surfaces of the wellbore; and a fluid having a lower optical absorption at a wavelength of the laser source than an optical absorption of fluids in the wellbore, the fluid configured to surround the laser head, contact the packer, and permit the laser beam to propagate to ablate the solid materials.
