Claim 12:
13. A system for deploying downhole components, comprising:
a housing apparatus, wherein the housing apparatus comprises:
an outer housing;
a tool chamber disposed within the outer housing and configured to house a plurality of downhole tools;
an upper axial end configured to couple to a conveyance for running the housing apparatus along a wellbore;
a fluid chamber formed within the outer housing proximate the upper axial end;
a plurality of exhaust ports extending through the outer housing from the fluid chamber to a wellbore, wherein the exhaust ports are axially offset from each other along the outer housing;
a lower axial end disposed opposite the upper axial end and having an opening extending from an exterior of the lower axial end to the tool chamber; and
a central passageway extending from an opposite end of the tool chamber to an opening in the upper axial end; and

an actuation mechanism secured within the housing apparatus and configured to selectively eject individual downhole tools of the plurality of downhole tools from the housing apparatus at respective locations in the wellbore in response to fluid communication received via the conveyance, wherein the actuation mechanism comprises an inner housing configured to eject the downhole tools via sliding axially along the outer housing to push the plurality of downhole tools out of the housing apparatus in response to pressure in the fluid chamber exceeding a threshold pressure, and wherein each exhaust port of the plurality of exhaust ports is positioned to generate a respective pressure drop after ejection of a corresponding downhole tool to stop movement of the inner housing such that each downhole tool is selectively ejected.
