The more complex the completion, the more trouble one can expect in both completion operations and in subsequent [[Workovers|workover operations]]. Multiple completions should be considered only in special situations. These situations include areas where [[drilling costs]] are very high or where the area allocated for drilling wells is at a premium. Such areas include offshore areas, highly populated areas, and remote land locations.

The main advantage of multiple completions is that two or more reservoirs can be simultaneously produced from a single wellbore. If all goes properly, the economics of using multiple completions can be attractive; however, operating and workover costs can be quite high. These operational factors must be considered when considering multiple completions.
