Zusammenfassung:An apparatus for treatment of a wellbore is described. The apparatus includes a tubing string having a wall that defines an inner bore and a plurality of ports spaced apart along the wall. The apparatus includes a plurality of port-closure sleeves each covering a corresponding port. The apparatus also includes a movable sleeve initially positioned uphole from the port-closure sleeves. There is an interference fit between the movable sleeve and the port-closure sleeve, enabling the movable sleeve to engage a port-closure sleeve, displace the port-closure-sleeve to open the corresponding port, and then pass past the port-closure sleeve to engage and displace the next downhole port-closure sleeve.
