1. A system for use in a geothermal well, comprising:
a geothermal well completion deployed downhole in a wellbore, the geothermal well completion comprising:
a tubular section deployed in a well zone, the tubular section defining a bore and comprising a first port and a second port, wherein a flow control device oriented to control fluid outflow from the tubular section defines the second port;
a screen configured to prevent proppant from entering the flow control device;
a first sleeve disposed in the bore of the tubular section and selectively shiftable between a first position and a second position, wherein:
in the first position of the first sleeve, the first sleeve prohibits fluid communication between the wellbore and the bore of the tubular section via the first port; and
in the second position of the first sleeve, the first sleeve is shifted past the first port and the wellbore and the bore of the tubular section are in fluid communication via the first port; and
a second sleeve disposed in the bore of the tubular section and selectively shiftable between a first position and a second position, wherein:
in the first position of the second sleeve, the second sleeve prohibits fluid communication between the wellbore and the bore of the tubular section via the second port; and
in the second position of the second sleeve, the second sleeve is shifted past the second port and the wellbore and the bore of the tubular section are in fluid communication via the second port.
