HT Choke

For all heavy oil recovery operations

Dedicated to high-temperature service, Cameron HT-rated chokes are a proven flow control solution for all heavy oil recovery operations, including steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) and cyclic steam stimulation (CSS).

The industry standard in flow control technology, control chokes have been a crucial element of wellhead and production equipment for more than 30 years. The plug & cage trim design ensures consistent performance—whether it’s injection or production, SAGD, or CSS. Our HT chokes provide durability, impact protection, erosion resistance, and accurate controllability with multiple trim capacities and flow characteristics for each nominal choke valve size.

Features

Full product range from 2-in to 6-in nominal sizes
