Declarations under Rule 4.17: as to applicant's entitlement to apply for and be granted a patent (Rule 4.1700) — with international search report (Art. 21(3)) — (54) Title: WIRELESS ACTIVATION OF WELLBORE COMPLETION ASSEMBLIES 200 208 202 218 210a 220a 222 216 220b 214 122 FIG. 2A (57) : A completion section includes a base pipe defining a central flow passage, an injection port, and a production port. A fracturing assembly includes a frac sleeve positioned within the central flow passage adjacent the injection port, a sensor that detects a wireless signal, a first frac actuator actuatable in response to the wireless signal to move the frac sleeve and expose the injection port, and a second frac actuator actuatable based on the wireless signal to move the frac sleeve to occlude the injection port. A production assembly is axially offset from the fracturing assembly and includes a production sleeve positioned within the central flow passage adjacent the production port, a filtration device arranged about the base pipe, and a production actuator actuatable based on the wireless signal or an additional wireless signal to move the production sleeve to an open position where the production ports are exposed.
