Ringo Choke Valves

Ringo Axial Choke Valves are engineered for high-performance flow control in extreme pressure and abrasive conditions, commonly found in the oil & gas industry. Designed for durability and accuracy, these valves manage high-velocity media such as gas, oil, and produced fluids, ensuring reliable operation in wellhead production, injection systems, and severe service environments.The axial flow design offers reduced turbulence and erosion by directing flow in a streamlined path, extending valve life and improving process efficiency. Available with multiple trim types—such as needle, cage, or plug designs—Ringo Choke Valves allow for precise control over flow rate and pressure drop, even under fluctuating process conditions. These valves are trusted in upstream and offshore operations, delivering safe, stable performance in some of the world’s harshest applications.

Where You’ll Find Ringo Choke Valves

Ringo Choke Valves are primarily used in oil and gas production environments, where precise flow control and resistance to extreme conditions are essential. You’ll find them installed at wellheads, manifolds, and flowlines to regulate the flow of crude oil, natural gas, or injected fluids under high-pressure and high-velocity conditions. Their robust design makes them ideal for offshore platforms, subsea operations, and onshore extraction sites, where reliability and safety are paramount.

These valves are also commonly used in gas reinjection systems, water or chemical injection lines, and early production facilities, where fluctuating pressures and erosive media demand precision and durability. In severe service applications, such as HP/HT wells (high pressure, high temperature), Ringo Choke Valves play a critical role in maintaining process control, protecting downstream equipment, and ensuring consistent production flow. Thanks to their axial design and flexible trim options, they are trusted by operators around the world to perform in the harshest industrial environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ringo Choke Valves are used to control the flow rate and pressure of fluids—primarily oil, gas, or injection water—in high-pressure production systems.

These valves are primarily used in the oil and gas industry, especially in wellheads, flowlines, gas reinjection, and subsea production.

Choke valves are specifically designed to handle severe service with high velocity, high pressure, and abrasive media, whereas general control valves may not withstand such conditions.

They provide accurate, modulating control of flow and pressure, even under rapidly changing or fluctuating conditions.

Yes, they are widely used on offshore platforms and subsea wells due to their robust construction and resistance to harsh environmental conditions.

They are available in carbon steel, stainless steel, Inconel, duplex, and other alloys depending on the application and fluid characteristics.

Ringo offers multiple trim options including needle, plug, and multi-stage cage trims, designed to handle cavitation, erosion, and high-pressure drops.

Yes, they are specifically designed for abrasive service, including fluids with sand, scale, or other particulates common in oilfield applications.

Absolutely. Ringo Choke Valves can be fitted with electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic actuators for remote and automated control.

They are built to perform in high-pressure systems, often rated up to 10,000 psi or more, depending on configuration and use case.

With engineered trims like multi-stage cages, they dissipate energy gradually, reducing cavitation, vibration, and erosion inside the valve.

Yes, they are designed and tested in accordance with API, ISO, and ASME standards to ensure performance, safety, and reliability in critical service.
