Downstream Wellhead Valves

Downstream Wellhead Valves

Downstream Wellhead Valves

(OP)
Hello there,

Does anyone know that If I could put the wing valve, ESD valve and choke valve side by side??? Is there any process or mechanical problem of doing this? or any maintenance issue or isolation issue?? Any help would be great. Thanks.

RE: Downstream Wellhead Valves

Choke valves often require an upstream straight pipe length. Worth a check with the vendor. Otherwise I don't see a problem bolting these together, assuming individual operation does not impede an adjacent valve internally or externally.

RE: Downstream Wellhead Valves

Wouldn't you want the ESD a tiny little bit far away from the well, so if the well maybe exploded or something you could keep the flowline contents from adding to the fire, or do you prefer that the ESD explodes with the well too.
