Bypass Manifold

The bypass manifold is used with well testing equipment in exploration, development, and production wells. The bypass manifold isolates the test equipment to prevent flow interruption if the testing equipment is pulled out of service temporarily. The bypass manifold typically consists of three manual gate valves and a variable choke box or a adjustable choke valve Bypass manifold valves use a proven metal-to-metal, double-sealing design to resist harsh environment operations. All models comply with all applicable standards, such as API Spec. 6A and NACE MR 0175. Applications Exploration, development, and production wells using multiphase flowmeter well testing equipment Benefits Provides isolation of the multiphase flowmeter without interrupting the flow Allows flowmeter recalibration if needed Features Metal-to-metal, double seal to ensure reliability in harsh environments Built-in Cameron style gate valve Compliance with API-6A (PSL-2 or 3, PR2), H2S (NACE MR0175)
