HOUMA, LA—CORTEC has been awarded an offshore project to deliver an upgraded Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) Manifold Package for a major international deepwater operation.
This project, a multi-million-dollar turnkey package, includes a complete, fully integrated system featuring high-spec, metal-seated ball valves, actuators, relief systems, chokes, and supporting piping and spools. All components are designed and manufactured in accordance with the strict NACE MR0175 and API-6A PSL-3 standards.
Technical Scope:
-
- Ball Valves: 8″ & 6″ compact designs, single and double configurations, equipped with AUMA electric actuators.
- Chokes: CX-3.0 & CX-6.0 assemblies with gantry systems.
- Choke Relief Valves: CORTEC Model CX-RV2.6, fully instrumented.
- Back Pressure Valves: 7-1/16″ 5K with QTRCO actuation.
- Flow & Measurement: Coriolis flow meter integration (customer-supplied).
- Piping & Accessories: Spools, tees, adapters, flanges, and fittings — all engineered for offshore reliability and long-term service.
All assemblies include an Inconel 625 overlay on seal areas, feature double O-ring sealing, and are coated with marine-grade epoxy and are supported by a complete material and test data package.
