A torch apparatus for consuming a downhole tool having a fuel load that produces heat and a source of oxygen when burned, and a plurality of slots having interstitial spaces therebetween for allowing longitudinal flow of fluid along the torch apparatus without interfering with the flow of fluid through the slots. The slots are oriented such that the heat and source of oxygen are provided to a portion of the downhole tool that is formed from a material that is at least partially consumed when exposed to heat and oxygen, to thereby cause destruction of the tool or disengagement of the tool such that the tool falls into the wellbore. |
