Abstract
A multilateral injection/production/storage completion system. In a described embodiment, a method of completing a well having a first wellbore intersecting each of second, third and fourth wellbores includes the steps of: injecting a first fluid into a first zone intersected by the second wellbore; receiving a second fluid into the third wellbore in response to the first fluid injecting step; flowing the second fluid from the third wellbore to the fourth wellbore; storing the second fluid in a second zone intersected by the fourth wellbore; and then producing the second fluid from the second zone to a remote location.

31. A method of completing a well having a first wellbore intersecting each of second, third and fourth wellbores, the method comprising the steps of:
-
interconnecting first, second and third apparatuses in a casing string, each of the apparatuses having a first passage forming a part of a longitudinal flow passage of the casing string, and a second passage intersecting the first passage;
positioning the casing string in the first wellbore;
injecting a first fluid through the first apparatus second passage into the second wellbore;
receiving a second fluid from the third wellbore into the second apparatus second passage;
flowing the second fluid from the second apparatus to the third apparatus; and
storing the second fluid in a zone intersected by the fourth wellbore. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51)
