Choke Manifold Checkpoint

An assembly of gauges, chokes, valves, and fittings arranged to regulate and control the flow of high pressure fluid from the well bore.

• Positive Choke

• Check Valve

• Adjustable Choke

• Choke Manifold

High pressure line used to bring well bore fluid from the BOP to the choke manifold.

• Panic Line

• Hydraulic Line

• Choke Line

• Air Line

A device incorporating an orifice that is used to control downstream fluid flow rate and upstream system pressure. It is available in several configurations for both fixed and adjustable modes of operation.

• Choke

• Check Valve

• Butterfly Valve

• Plug Valve

The item on the stem assembly that will move up and down to open and close the internal valve.

• Seat

• Stem

• Gate

• Retaining Ring

A line equal to or greater than the size of the choke line. It is directly opposite of the choke line and is used to get pressure and fluid away from the rig.

• Panic Line

• Hydraulic Line

• Choke Line

• Air Line

A choke valve on the choke manifold that can be operated from a distance (usually the rig floor). They are electrically or hydraulically powered.

• Full Choke

• Remote Choke

• Modified Choke

• Manual Choke

This moving part of a valve that controls the amount released by moving up and down against the seat to open and close the valve.

• Retaining Ring

• Seat

• Stem

• Wing Nut

it measures pressure, typically of gases or liquids. It usually acts as a transducer: it generates a signal as a function of the pressure imposed. The signal can be electrical or hydraulic.

• Pressure Sensor

• Pressure Cooker

• Pressure Switch

• Pressure Gauge

A choke valve on the choke manifold that is operated by hand. It is typically needle and seat.

• Full Choke

• Remote Choke

• Modified Choke

• Manual Choke

A device to measure pressure within a pressure containing or controlling system.

• Pressure Sensor

• Pressure Cooker

• Pressure Switch

• Pressure Gauge
