Claim Text:
1. A method for placing a completion into an openhole section of well below a well casing, comprising the steps of: (a) inserting a completion string connected to a liner hanger having a release mechanism section into a well, (b) inserting a flow cycling valve connected to a deployment string into a well, (c) activating a fluid pump on the surface to pump fluids downhole to the flow cycling valve disposed proximally of the completion string to generate one or more pressure pulses, (d) applying the force caused by the one or more pressure pulses to advance the completion distally into the well until the flow cycling valve and the liner hanger encounter a casing profile, and (e) causing the release mechanism to release from the liner hanger, thereby completing the placement of the completion in the well.
