Abstract: An apparatus for selectably sealing an interior bore of a completion string comprises an elongate body extending between top and bottom ends having connectors for connecting the body in line with the completion string, an interior wall forming a bore through the elongate body between top and bottom ends and a rupturable barrier member fastened to and bridging the bore, the barrier member being deformable so as to permit passage therepast after being ruptured.

Abstract: An apparatus for selectively opening a passage through a downhole casing comprises an elongate cylindrical housing defining a central bore therein and having at least one passage extending therethrough between the central bore and an exterior of the housing, the housing being configured to be located in line within a downhole casing, a ball seat slidably located within the central bore so as to be operable to selectively cover or uncover the at least one passage and a sealing sleeve slidably located within the central bore between an open and closed position wherein the sealing sleeve valve covers the at least one passage in the closed position and uncovers the at least one passage in the open position.
