Frequently Asked Questions
API 16C is the industry standard for choke and kill systems, ensuring that the equipment is designed, manufactured, and tested to withstand specific pressure and temperature limits for well control safety.
PSL3 represents a higher Product Specification Level with stricter requirements for material testing and quality control, significantly reducing the risk of material failure in high-pressure environments.
Yes, our system is rated for temperatures as low as -46 °C, making it suitable for arctic drilling operations without compromising structural integrity.
The choke manifold is used to control the flow of fluids coming out of the well, while the kill manifold is used to pump heavy fluids into the well to regain control during a kick.
We offer a versatile range of nominal diameters from 2 1/16" up to 4 1/16" to accommodate different flow requirements and rig specifications.
While it depends on the usage environment, we recommend comprehensive pressure testing and seal inspections according to API 16C guidelines or your specific rig management plan.
