Abstract
A system may include an orienting liner hanger disposed in a main bore of a multilateral well in a position downhole from a junction of the multilateral well. The system may also include a lower completion secured to a downhole end of the orienting liner hanger and a fluid separator assembly disposed uphole from the orienting liner hanger. The fluid separator assembly may be configured to receive formation fluid, which may include oil and water, flowing uphole from the lower completion. The fluid separator assembly may be configured to at least partially separate the formation fluid into formation oil and formation water. The fluid separator assembly may be configured to output formation oil to an upper production tubing and output the formation water into a lateral bore of the multilateral well.
