Surface Manifold System Applications Across the Well Lifecycle

Engineered to provide precise pressure control, reliable flow routing, and fast-track MRO support from initial drilling through long-term field production.

Applications of surface monifold Across the Well Lifecycle

1. Drilling Operations & Well Control

Skid & MRO Scope: Complete Choke & Kill Manifold skids; rapid-replacement API 16C drilling chokes, hardfaced erosion nipples, and high-pressure union spools.

2. Well Completion & Pressure Testing

Primary Function: Handles completion fluid circulation, cement displacement, casing pressure testing, and temporary surface routing prior to tree installation.

Skid & MRO Scope: High-pressure testing manifolds; replacement gate valve repair kits, stem packings, and companion flange assemblies.

3. Well Testing & Flowback Operations

Primary Function: Safely diverts high-rate hydrocarbons, solids, and frac fluids during exploration and flowback testing to separators and flare stacks.

Skid & MRO Scope: Mobile skid-mounted well testing manifolds; high-wear tungsten carbide choke trims, nozzle beans, and erosion buffer tees.

4. Early Production Facilities (EPF)

Primary Function: Enables fast-track production setup, pressure balancing, and flexible flow switching between temporary processing units and storage tanks.

Skid & MRO Scope: Modular production switching manifolds; manual/actuated gate valves, check valves, and manifold branch headers.

5. Well Intervention & Workover

Primary Function: Directs pumping fluids, isolates surface pressure, and manages chemical acidizing or kill fluid circulation during intervention jobs.

Skid & MRO Scope: Portable workover manifolds; plug valves, emergency shut-off valves, and hydraulic control console replacements.

6. Long-Term Production & Field Maintenance

Primary Function: Sustains long-term production flow distribution, allows maintenance bypass without well shutdown, and optimizes reservoir drawdown.

    FAQs about Surface Manifold Systems

    A surface manifold distributes flow to multiple destinations, while a choke manifold primarily controls well pressure by restricting flow through adjustable or fixed chokes. Surface manifolds focus on routing and isolation, whereas choke manifolds are designed for pressure regulation during well control operations.

    Our supply network covers working pressure ratings from 2,000Psi to 25,000 Psi(13.8MPa – 172.5MPa) with nominal bore sizes ranging from 1-13/16” to 7-1/16”. Systems are available in PSL 1 through PSL 4 and PR1/PR2 performance levels.

    All surface manifolds, choke & kill manifolds, and fracturing distribution systems conform strictly to API Spec 6A, API Spec 16C, and API Spec 16A. For corrosive and sour environments containing H2S and CO2, equipment is fully compliant with NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 standards (Material Classes DD through HH).
