A Correct answer
Explanation

After casing is cemented in a well, the standard completion sequence is: (1) install production tubing inside the casing, (2) perforate the casing and cement at the productive zones, (3) then begin production. Installing tubing first provides the conduit for hydrocarbons to flow to the surface. Perforating happens after tubing is in place but before production begins. Vacuum is not part of this process.
