Line manifold for concurrent fracture operations

摘要

A modular, adjustable system for distributing fluids to one or more wellbores includes a plurality of modules that can be arranged at a well site to create an appropriate manifold to enable selective fluid communication between a fluid pumping system and the one or more wellbores. The modules each include a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet and a valve coupled therebetween to selectively permit or restrict fluid flow between the respective fluid inlets and fluid outlets. The modules are configured to be readily maneuvered, coupled and locked to one another at a well site.

1. A fluid distribution system for use in a fluid system for providing fluid treatments to a plurality of wellbores, the fluid distribution system comprising:
a first module comprising a first fluid inlet, a first fluid outlet and at least one first valve coupled between the first fluid inlet and the first fluid outlet, the first fluid outlet and the at least one first valve arranged along a generally straight first axis; a second module comprising a second fluid inlet, a second fluid outlet and at least one second valve coupled between the second inlet and the second outlet, the second fluid inlet, the second fluid outlet and the at least one second valve arranged along a generally straight second axis; a first fluid conduit extending between the first module and the second module along a third axis that is generally orthogonal to the first axis and the second axis, the first fluid conduit fluidly coupling the second fluid inlet to the first fluid module; and wherein a fluid flow path between the first fluid inlet and any valve of the first module and the second module includes a change in direction located between an entrance of the first fluid inlet and the valve so that fluid entering the first fluid inlet passes through the change in direction before reaching any valve.
