Abstract: Linear wellhead connection systems and related methods of pumping fluid into a plurality of wellheads. The linear wellhead connection system uses linear movement of an inlet conduit to transition between multiple discharge conduits that are connected to different wellheads to pump pressurized fluid from a manifold to the different wellheads. The inlet conduit is moveable in a linear direction along a track system relative to the discharge conduits.

Abstract: A locking collar quick union connection comprises a split ring and a locking collar sub assembly. The locking collar sub assembly includes a collar, a locking ring, and a locking screw. The locking ring includes outer threads that engage inner threads formed on a larger inner diameter portion of the collar. The split ring includes outer threads that engage inner threads formed on a smaller inner diameter portion of the collar. The locking screw rotationally locks the locking ring to the locking collar.

Abstract: A failure protection apparatus including an air source providing air having an air pressure, a first valve in fluid communication with the air source permitting a control fluid to flow to a pressure control assembly when the air pressure is at least a minimum pressure and preventing flow of the control fluid to the assembly when the air pressure is below a minimum pressure, the assembly containing control fluid at a predetermined pressure that is maintained when the air pressure is below the minimum pressure, a second valve in communication with the air source permitting communication of air between an inlet and an outlet when the air pressure is below the minimum pressure, a third valve in communication with the air source, a pressure container in communication with the third valve outlet and having an outlet that feeds air to the second valve to actuate a warning device attached thereto.

Abstract: A clamping device for clamping an object to a structure, the device including a lever arm pivotally mounted relative to the structure, at least one member for urging one end portion of the arm in a direction to pivot the other end portion into engagement with the object, and an actuator supported by the housing and adapted to engage the one end portion of the arm to pivot the other end portion out of the engagement. The device is utilized to clamp a screen to a bed of a separator.
