Field service lines and pipeline transmission lines are generally low pressure and require
proper sizing for distribution of produced fluids. Chokes are an essential part of balancing
these requirements.
Controlled release of reservoir fluids through proper flow and pressure regulation will
maximize the life of the reservoir and the recovery of valuable oil and gas products.
They extend the reservoir life and prevent fracture or bleed off of the fluids by controlling
the pressure going into the well
