Abstract

A method and apparatus for landing and orienting a production selective landing tool (PSLT) within a well casing. The well casing is provided with one or more indexing casing coupling (ICC). The PSLT is included in a completion string. The PSLT has several landing keys and an orientation key. The PSLT is conveyed through the casing and lands in the ICC. The PSLT has integrated control lines for intelligent completion. The PSLT has lugs coupled to a mandrel and control lines. The lugs, the mandrel and the control lines are shifted relative to the body of the PSLT. The control lines are in a slot of the body. The PSLT is locked in the ICC when the mandrel is shifted. The PSLT can be removed from the ICC via pulling the completion string uphole.
