• Quickly control pressure and flowrates at the surface and shut in the well.
• Separate the effluent into three separate fluids (oil, gas and water), accurately
meter the fluids, collect and separate solids as applicable.
WP = 1.2 MPWHP
• HPHT service:
– WHP > 10 000 psi
– WHT > 250 °F
– High Flow-rate: Gas 30 MMSCF/D
Liquid 8000 B/D

High rate tests:
- The choke is called EFFECTIVE, when Critical flow is achieved through it.
• Gas Manifold on the gas outlet line from the separator, diverts the gas
flow to either port or starboard gas flare
• Oil Manifold on the oil outlet line from the separator, diverts the oil flow
to either burners, or to and from tanks
• Pressure Rating: 1440 Psi
