Well completion process is a fundamental stage in a study of well, since allows transforming a drilled well into a producing well. An efficient well completion design can make the difference between a high and a low production. In an unconventional well of high angle in an oil field in México, an intelligent completion was designed having that ability to remotely activate and modify the functioning of the area completed through flow control, as well as monitor the response and performance of each zone in real time. Conventional well completion design often ignores the occurrence of natural fractures, necessary to create a connection for a major production and permit stimulate areas into reservoirs but also can cause a perforation fluid loss. One of the earliest and most effective ways to predict the presence of them is the use of discontinuity seismic attributes post-stack able to estimate areas with higher density of natural fractures. This study highlighted the importance of information obtained from the seismic analysis in areas where data is scarce, providing greater certainty to the drilling and design team.
