Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-002389
A high-pressure manifold unit on a hydraulic fracturing spread that collects the discharge lines of several frac pumps and sends the combined flow to the wellhead or to a zipper manifold serving several wells. It carries the valves that let individual pumps be isolated during the job. It sits between the pumping trucks and the frac tree and is a surface flow control unit, not a downhole tool.
