  • Specialized solutions for SAGD (Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage) in both injection and production applications.
  • Expertly engineered for Cyclic Steam Stimulation (CSS) and other thermal applications.
  • Continuously evolving to meet the demands of emerging HTHP applications.

Erosive Service: Mastering the Challenge of Abrasive Media

Master Flo’s ongoing research and development has led to significant advancements in controlling erosive service conditions. Our choke valves are engineered to excel in erosive environments, ensuring reliable performance even in the most challenging situations.

Key features for erosive service conditions include:

Advanced Trim Design: Master Flo choke valves incorporate specialized trim designs that minimize wear and erosion of critical components. The trim materials are carefully selected to withstand erosive forces, ensuring extended service life.

5CB Tungsten Carbide: For unparalleled erosion resistance, Master Flo offers our proprietary 5CB Tungsten Carbide. In rigorous erosion loop tests, 5CB trim has demonstrated up to 7.7 times the erosion resistance of other Tungsten Carbides, making it an ideal choice for erosive service applications.

Streamlined Maintenance: Our choke valves are designed with ease of maintenance in mind. Non-threaded trim components and a retaining sleeve make it simple to remove and service the internals. This design not only simplifies maintenance procedures but also extends the lifespan of the valve.

Customizable Solutions: Master Flo understands that erosive service conditions can vary widely. That’s why we offer optional trim designs and service-specific materials to cater to the unique requirements of your erosive service application.

Unconventional Oil and Gas: Adapting to the Industry's Evolution

As the oil and gas industry evolves with new technologies to exploit unconventional sources, Master Flo remains in lockstep with these developments. Our choke valves are at the forefront of addressing the unique challenges presented by these sources, including erosion, corrosion, high temperatures, and high pressures. You’ll find our reliable solutions in various unconventional oil and gas applications worldwide, such as:

  • Managing the demanding conditions of heavy oil extraction.
  • Navigating the complexities of bitumen processing.
  • Ensuring consistent flow in shale oil and gas operations.
  • Adapting to emerging technologies and novel extraction methods.
