Claim 14:
15. A method for reservoir fluid production from a well having a wellbore string in communication with a formation containing the reservoir fluid, comprising:
injecting fracturing fluid through flow regulators of the wellbore string into the formation to create fractures in predetermined zones along the wellbore;
supplying injection fluid down the wellbore string;
injecting injection fluid from the wellbore string to the formation through injection flow regulators substantially aligned with a first set of fractures defined in a first set of zones, while blocking fluid communication between the wellbore string and the formation through production flow regulators substantially aligned with a second set of fractures defined in a second set of zones;
ceasing the supply of injection fluid and blocking fluid communication between the formation and the wellbore string through the injection flow regulators;
permitting fluid communication between the formation and the wellbore string through the production flow regulators to enable reservoir fluid to flow from the formation into the wellbore string; and
transporting the reservoir fluid in the wellbore string to surface.
