Wellbore method and apparatus for completion, production and injection

A method of producing hydrocarbons from a well comprising:

• providing a production string comprising two joint assemblies into a wellbore, each of the at least two joint assemblies prepared by a method comprising:
• providing a main body comprising a base pipe defining a tubular through bore, an exterior surface of the base pipe defining a main body inner diameter and an interior surface of the base pipe defining a base pipe inner diameter, the main body comprising an outer diameter exterior to the main body inner diameter, the main body further including at least one transport conduit and at least one packing conduit, wherein both the at least one transport conduit and the at least one packing conduit are disposed exterior to the inner diameter and interior to the outer diameter;
• operably attaching a load sleeve assembly to the main body, the load sleeve assembly including an elongated body comprising an outer wall providing an outer diameter and an inner wall providing an inner diameter and a tubular through bore in fluid communication with the main body tubular through bore, the load sleeve assembly further including at least one transport conduit and at least one packing conduit, wherein both the at least one transport conduit and the at least one packing conduit are disposed exterior to the inner diameter and interior to the outer diameter and are in fluid communication with each of the respective at least one transport conduit and at least one packing conduit of the main body;
• operably attaching a torque sleeve assembly to the main body, the torque sleeve assembly including an elongated body comprising an outer wall providing an outer diameter and an inner wall providing an inner diameter and defining a tubular through bore in fluid communication with the main body tubular through bore, the torque sleeve assembly further including at least one transport conduit and at least one packing conduit, wherein both the at least one transport conduit and the at least one packing conduit are disposed exterior to the inner diameter and interior to the outer diameter and are in fluid communication with each of the respective at least one transport conduit and the at least one packing conduit of the main body;
• and
• operably attaching a coupling assembly with at least one of the load sleeve assembly and the torque sleeve assembly, the coupling assembly including a coupling and a manifold region located in an annulus exterior to the coupling and is at least partially defined by an exterior surface of the coupling and the manifold region is configured to be in fluid flow communication with the at least one transport conduit and at least one packing conduit of the engaged at least one of the load sleeve assembly and torque sleeve assembly during at least a portion of gravel packing operations;
• running the prepared production string into the wellbore;
• gravel packing an interval of the production string in the wellbore;
• and
• producing hydrocarbons from the wellbore by passing hydrocarbons through the at least two joint assemblies.
