Abstract: The present invention relates to a cork stamp system and method for application with a wine bottle where the cork stamp system includes: a disc like stamp, where the stamp includes a first surface and second surface; a unique design impression on the first surface and adhesive on the second surface; and a cork wherein the cork may be used for closing an open end of a wine bottle. The adhesive surface of the cork stamp according to the present invention abuts the cork upon insertion into a wine bottle. The adhesive on the second surface of cork stamp firmly adheres the stamp to the cork. The unique design impression acquires stamping capabilities after insertion into the wine bottle.

Abstract: A technique to install a tool in a well includes running the tool into the well and fixing the tool to the well with a fixing agent without pumping the fixing agent through a central passageway of the tool. The tool may be a perforating gun that includes a casing body that includes a longitudinal axis. The perforating gun may also include a fin and a perforating charge. The fin radially extends from the casing body, and the perforating charge is attached to the fin and is oriented to generate a perforation jet in a radial direction away from the longitudinal axis of the casing body.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a perforating gun having stackable sections that latch, enabling the gun string to carry both compressive and tensile loads. This allows for the downhole assembly of guns of any desired length, and for the entire gun string to be removed after firing.

Abstract: A test system and method for testing a well having a first and second zone includes a chamber and an isolation device moveable in the chamber. The isolation device separates a first and a second portion of the chamber. The chamber is adapted to receive fluid in the second chamber portion from the first zone. The isolation device is adapted to be moved in the chamber in a first direction by the first zone fluid. The first chamber portion can be charged with fluid pressure to move the isolation device in a second direction to pump the first zone fluid inside the second chamber portion into the second zone.
