In accordance with presently disclosed embodiments, a method and system for performing real-time evaluation of a restimulation operation using coiled tubing with fiber optics is provided. The method involves performing a restimulation treatment by pumping a slurry with diverter materials through an annulus in the wellbore surrounding the coiled tubing, and using fiber optics in the coiled tubing to identify the order and magnitude of fractures being created during the restimulation treatment. The fiber optics in the coiled tubing may include one or more fiber optic cables designed to collect distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) or distributed temperature sensing (DTS) data. The evaluation of the restimulation operation may be used to validate and/or adjust the restimulation treatment as needed to improve the lateral distribution of transverse fractures through a subterranean formation. The coiled tubing may also be used to remove sand bridges from the wellbore throughout the restimulation treatment.
