Embodiment Construction

[0017] In all the drawings, the same reference numerals are used as much as possible to represent the same or similar components. figure 1 Exemplary hydraulic fracturing system 100 depicts. E.g, figure 1 A plan view depicting an exemplary hydraulic fracturing site along with an apparatus used during hydraulic fracturing process. and figure 1 The exemplary apparatus used in the hydraulic fracturing process, it is understood that additional devices can be achieved to perform hydraulic fracturing. In addition, in some hydraulic fracturing systems can be omitted figure 1 Some devices shown in.

[0018] As mentioned earlier, hydraulic fracturing is a well-produced product, which requires high pressure injection of the fracturing fluid to the well 102 and the corresponding wellbore to hydraulically fractured the rock formations around the eye. Although the description thereof described herein describes hydraulic fracturing in the context of a wellbore increased in oil and gas production...

Abstract

A fracturing manifold system including a first plurality of junctions mounted on a support structure and fluidly connected via conduit, individual ones of the first plurality of junctions configured to receive fracturing fluid from at least one fracturing pump and the first plurality of junctions including a first terminal junction. The fracturing manifold system further includes a fracturing head fluidly connected to the first plurality of junctions. The fracturing manifold system is configurable between a first configuration in which the fracturing head is mounted at a location proximate an end of the support structure and a second configuration in which an additional junction is mounted on the first support structure at the location, the additional junction is fluidly connected to the first plurality of junctions, a second plurality of junctions is fluidly connected to the additional junction, and the fracturing head is fluidly connected to the second plurality of junctions.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a hydraulic fracturing manifold. More specifically, the present invention relates to a modular hydraulic fracturing manifold that can be configured between multiple configurations. Background technique [0002] Hydraulic fracturing is an oil well-yield technology that typically involves delivering a hydraulic fracture fluid to a wellbore in a rock formation sufficient to form a crack in a rock formation around the wellbore. The well-yield technology typically enhances the natural fracturing of the rock formation to increase the permeability of the rock formation, thereby improving the harvesting of water, oil, natural gas, and / or other fluids. In order to fracture the rock formation, the hydraulic fracturing fluid injects the hydraulic fracturing fluid into the wellbore in the pressure and rate sufficient to exceed the fracturing gradient of the target formation. In some conventional arrangements, hydraulic fracturing flui...
