Master Flo Valve reports that it has manufactured its 100,000th choke valve. Founded in 1979, the company’s choke valves, control valves, actuation and flow management solutions can be found in every major onshore and offshore oil and gas field around the world, with over 2400 subsea chokes used by more than 75 operators.
Ongoing investment in R&D has resulted in advancements such as Master Flo’s proprietary 5CB tungsten carbide for erosive and corrosive service, high pressure high temperature capabilities, subsea chokes that set several world depth records (9,356 feet in 2008), and a full range of high performance actuation for surface and subsea.
“The 100,000 choke milestone is a testament to our focus on forming long-term partnerships with our customers, and the expertise of our people—from the technical sales professionals who partner with customers to deliver application-specific solutions, to the Engineers who push our technology to set new industry standards, to the guys on the manufacturing floor who produce the world-class products our customers rely on for their essential flow management,” said Mark McNeill, president of Master Flo.
