in place in the well as with the shifting tool 200 the geometry for control line bypass in the slick joint 300 does not affect functionality or ratings of the slick joint 300 a smooth outer diameter slick mandrel 312 is joined to the first sub 306 such as via threading and provides a place onto which the inverted seals 14 16 can hold a pressure tight seal for zonal isolation an inner tubular 314 is also attached to the first sub 306 and provides a pressure tight path for production fluids to flow in the passageway 110 from the wellbore to surface after the hydraulic production valves 106 have been opened the inner tubular 314 is capable of containing pressures expected during the production life of the well with additional reference to fig4 b a ported second sub 316 such as a downhole sub connects with the inner tubular 314 and the slick mandrel 312 the second sub 316 may slide onto the inner tubular 314 while simultaneously sliding into fingers 318 on the slick mandrel 312 in such a configuration of a quick connect retaining feature the second sub 316 requires no rotation during assembly so that control lines 150 can be.
