Abstract
A disclosed choke valve insert includes a cage, bonnet, valve stem, and seal assembly. The cage has an orifice configured to receive a flow of fluid. The bonnet is disposed superior to the cage and has a stem bore and cavity. The seal assembly is disposed within the cavity and around the stem bore. The seal assembly includes a seal housing, inner seal, and outer seal. The seal housing has an inner slot and outer slot. The inner seal is disposed within the inner slot and configured to prevent a portion of the flow of fluid from leaking superiorly past the inner seal. The outer seal is disposed within the outer slot and configured to allow the portion of the flow of fluid to return to the stem bore inferior to the inner seal when the inner seal fails.
