Initial fluid flow from the well is commenced by provisionally opening the main flow regulating valve for a predetermined time interval. During said timed interval, if the pressure in the well flow line is not stabilized to an acceptable operating range, the main flow valve will be automatically closed in response to a pressure sensing means which communicates said main flow line with the main valve actuator.
