Explanation:
Although it can't be decided with 100% certainty from the context, I'd say that it's rather likely that these are 'orifice plates'. Another, more common Norwegian term is "blende".

neutral  Roald Toskedal: I'd say that in this case, "struping" would equal "choking". Anyway, the industry term is 'orifice plate'.

agree  Richard Lawson: RTTs Ordbok for petroleumsvirksomhet gives "orifice plate" for "strupeskive". RTTs Ordbok for automatiseringsteknikk gives "orifice plate" for "måleskive", defined as "strupeorgan som består av en skive med hull, vanligvis montert mellom to flenser".
