Choke Certification Program

Minimize premature failures and enhance uptime

Choke failures, particularly when you're working in high-producing gas fields, have huge costs and safety and production implications. Understanding the condition and performance of chokes as part of a proactive integrity strategy is the only way to eradicate such failures and deliver greater production uptime.

Adopting an OEM maintenance strategy helps you

increase availability and reliability
reduce downtime with OEM procedures, processes, and components
optimize maintenance costs and improve choke life
benefit from engineering support to manage changes in well conditions
leverage local sales and service support.

Cameron provides an unmatched approach to choke certification, incorporating these elements to keep premature failures to a minimum and potentially increase production revenues as a result of both choke reliability and availability.

Dedicated workshops

Cameron provides an all-encompassing approach to critical choke certification, including Six Sigma compliant choke workshops in facilities conveniently located near high-profile gas projects, such as in the Middle East. The choke certification infrastructure also enables gas pressure testing and breakout testing, along with indoor storage and a controlled environment for elastomers.
