Abstract:
A first expandable tubular is longitudinally extendable from a housing. The first expandable tubular is expandable to a diameter equal to an internal surface of a wellbore. A first expander is configured to expand the expandable tubular. A second expandable tubular is longitudinally extendable from the housing. The second expandable tubular is configured to expand to a diameter equal to an internal surface of the wellbore. The second expandable tubular is downhole of the first expandable tubular. A second expander is configured to expand the second expandable tubular. The second expander is downhole of the first expander. A sensor is downhole of the second expander. The sensor is configured to detect a presence of a wellbore obstruction proximal to the tool.
