  • Patent number: 11085266
    Abstract: A method for delivering a fracturing fluid at a well site includes transporting a manifold module using a platform to the well site by supporting the manifold module on a vehicle bed; using the platform to position the manifold module directly over a target location; extending a stand from the manifold module toward the ground; lifting the manifold module off the bed using the extended stand; moving the platform away from under the manifold module; and lowering the manifold module using the stand. These steps are repeated to form a manifold assembly that includes a plurality of serially aligned and interconnected manifold modules. A related system includes a manifold assembly and platform as described.

  • Patent number: 11066893
    Abstract: A system for delivering a fracturing fluid at a well site includes an input and a manifold assembly. The manifold assembly is connected receives a fluid mixture from the input and includes a plurality of manifold modules. Each manifold module includes a plurality of flow line segments, and at least one connector. The connector has a telescopically extendable end face connecting at least one flow line segment of the plurality of flow line segments to an adjacent connector assembly.
