Claim 17:
18. A system, comprising:
an item of equipment comprising:
at least one annulus fluid flow path formed therein, the annulus fluid flow path configured to be in fluid communication with an annulus area directly between a production casing and a production tubing that defines a path for conveying production fluids from a well formation to a wellhead; and

a production/annulus bore stab comprising:
a unitary body comprising a first cylindrical outer surface, a second cylindrical outer surface, and an inner cylindrical surface that defines a central production bore, wherein at least a portion of the unitary body is positioned within and sealingly coupled to the item of equipment; and
a plurality of individual annulus fluid flow paths defined entirely within the unitary body, each of the individual annulus fluid flow paths being fluidly isolated from one another within the unitary body, each of the individual annulus fluid flow paths comprising a first inlet/outlet and a second inlet/outlet, wherein the first inlet/outlet is positioned in the first cylindrical outer surface and the second inlet/outlet is positioned in the second cylindrical outer surface, wherein each of the plurality of the individual annulus fluid flow paths are the same length between the first inlet/outlet and the second inlet/outlet;

wherein the at least one annulus fluid flow path within the item of equipment is in fluid communication with at least one of the plurality of individual annulus fluid flow paths defined within the unitary body via the first inlet/outlet or the second inlet/outlet.
