Basics of Choke Manifold System
Generally, a choke manifold system is defined as an arrangement of special valves and piping. It is employed to control the pressure encountered during the kick. During well testing, the choke manifold drilling rig is attached to the wellhead to permit downstream pressure and flow control for test components. The choke manifold system manages well pressure fluctuations encountered during drilling by diverting flow through Wellcon pressure control valves and choke. These equipment are manufactured to the most stringent quality standards. It also includes specialized packages that significantly reduce manual handling and boost safety. What Kind of Drilling Chokes are Used? The drilling chokes used in the manifolds can be categorized into two main categories depending on the system used for choking. Category #1: Two surfaces with openings are rotated against each other to restrict or permit the flow. One of its examples is the Swaco Super Choke, composed of two tungsten carbi...
