High-pressure manifold
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001830
An assembly of pipes, valves, and gauges designed to control and distribute high-pressure fluids, such as those used in hydraulic fracturing operations. It directs the frac fluid from the pumping units to the wellhead, allowing for precise control of injection rates and pressures. These manifolds are constructed to withstand pressures often exceeding 10,000 psi.
