Choke Manifold
Choke manifold is a system of gate valves and chokes for controlling the flow. Usually there is two flow paths, one is with adjustable choke when flow vibration heavily, the other is with positive choke that control flowrate accurately which can be changed online.
The positive choke has a fixed diameter and the size of the orifice on the adjustable choke can be varied. In addition the adjustable choke allows fixed chokes to be switched out as needed without stopping the well, increasing the flexibility of the overall system.
If choke mainfold should be bypassed, there is third flow paths with only gate valves.
Applications
- Onshore and offshore oil and gas well testing and cleanup after drilling or workover operations
- Flowback after stimulation or workover operations
- other situation need reducing fluid pressure
Features
- Built-in FC gate valves which can be redressed on pipeline.
- Provides two or three flow paths, back up gate valve also can be added.
- Provides a means for fluid sampling, real-time pressure and temperature monitoring
- Complies with API-6A and API 16C
