Abstract
A technique is provided in which a soft landing system is used for connecting upper and lower assemblies in a wellbore. The soft landing system cushions the engagement of an upper well assembly with a lower well assembly and facilitates the controlled engagement of control line connectors. The controlled engagement limits or avoids damage to the control line connectors in well completion operations performed in two or more stages.
