Lateral locating assembly having one or more production ports

A well system, comprising:

• a main wellbore extending through one or more subterranean formations;
• a lateral wellbore extending from the main wellbore;
• and
• a lateral locating assembly located in the main wellbore proximate an intersection between the main wellbore and the lateral wellbore, the lateral locating assembly including:
• a tubular;
• a bendable deflection tip coupled to the tubular, the bendable deflection tip configured to move between a straight position and a bent position upon the application of fluid pressure thereto;
• one or more production ports coupling an interior of the tubular and an exterior of the tubular;
• and
• a cover positioned about the one or more production ports, the cover configured to seal the one or more production ports when in a first position and expose the one or more production ports when in a second position.
