==Special Considerations for Producing and Injection Wells==
The completion technique applied to a well depends on whether the well is a producing well or an injection well. For a producing well, the number of different reservoirs that may eventually be produced is significant. A decision must be made on whether a single or multiple completion will be made. One should be aware of stimulation treatments that may be required or the possible need for artificial lift equipment to produce fluids from the wellbore. Information on Christmas trees, tubing spools, packers, and downhole equipment needed to produce the well should be carefully designed and included in the completion program.
