Geothermal energy extraction, from secondary sector of business, can be profitable when reservoir is exploited to its maximum capacity, with proper parity with an effective model. The model should be economically feasible as well. A long-term solution in the generation energy from subsurface by mitigating problems involved in conventional drilling methods can be achieved by Laser Drilling techniques. Lasers device is the novel technique for geothermal energy exploitation program, which deals with emission of a focused beam of light. Also, application of IoT is expanding with the augmentation of digitalized era in all the industries and can be well sourced for efficient data collection and transmission. The fundamental aim is to contemplate the most efficient and achievable hybrid model of laser drilling alongwith application of IoT to enhance drilling activities and mitigate production problems. Mechanical and thermal properties of rock that affects the drilling operations are reviewed for Laser-Assisted Drilling (LAD) prerequisite. The application of this hybrid model laser in well drilling, completion and efficient data transmission while infield operations are congregated. Problems associated with conventional drilling and completion methods such as skin effect, borehole tortuosity and several other wellbore frailties are scrutinized. The probable solution for these problems with standard references are anatomized and concluded in this review.
