Summary: | A method for completing a wellbore (100) in a subsurface formation includes providing a first base pipe and a second base pipe. Each base pipe comprises a tubular body (615; 205) forming a primary flow path (618) and has transport conduits along an outer diameter for transporting fluids as a secondary flow path (620). The method (1400) also includes connecting the base pipes using a coupling assembly. The coupling assembly has a manifold, and a flow port (920) adjacent the manifold that places the primary flow path (618) in fluid communication with the secondary flow path. The method (1400) also includes running the base pipes into the wellbore (100), and then causing fluid to travel between the primary and secondary flow paths. A wellbore (100) completion apparatus is also provided that allows for control of fluid between the primary and secondary flow paths. (Fig.1) |
