Abstract
Portable natural gas distribution systems for dual fuel fleets such as hydraulic fracturing fleets are described.
Claims23
A portable gas distribution system comprising:
- a mobile trailer having onboard:
- an input gas fitting;
- an emergency shut off valve coupled on a first side to the input gas fitting;
- a pressure reducer having a first side coupled to a second side of the emergency shut off valve;
- one or more coalescing filters coupled to a second side of the pressure reducer, wherein each coalescing filter includes a first filter to remove water;
- one or more manifolds having a first side coupled to a second side of the one or more coalescing filters respectively, each manifold having a plurality of ports, wherein each port is coupled to a low-pressure slam shut valve that is configured to sense a decrease in a pressure of a gas and will close when the pressure of the gas decreases below a threshold, and wherein each manifold includes a diffuser;
- and
- a plurality of hoses each having a first end and a second end, wherein each first end of each hose is coupled to a respective low-pressure slam shut valve.

A portable gas distribution system comprising:
- a pressure reducer having a first side coupled to an input gas fitting;
- one or more coalescing filters coupled to a second side of the pressure reducer, wherein each coalescing filter includes a first filter to remove water and a second filter to filter particulates and heavy hydrocarbons;
- one or more manifolds having a first side coupled to a second side of the one or more coalescing filters respectively, each manifold having a plurality of ports, wherein each port is coupled to a low-pressure slam shut valve that is configured to sense a decrease in a pressure of a gas and will close when the pressure of the gas decreases below a threshold, and wherein each manifold includes a diffuser;
- and
- at least one hose having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the at least one hose is coupled to a respective low-pressure slam shut valve.
2 more elements
A gas distribution system comprising:
- one or more coalescing filters each having a first side coupled to a second side of a pressure reducer supplying input gas, wherein each coalescing filter includes a first filter to remove water;
- one or more manifolds having a first side coupled to a second side of the one or more coalescing filters respectively, each manifold having a plurality of ports, wherein each port is coupled to a low-pressure slam shut valve that is configured to sense a decrease in a pressure of a gas and will close when the pressure of the gas decreases below a threshold, and wherein each manifold includes a diffuser;
- and
- at least one hose having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the at least one hose is coupled to a respective low-pressure slam shut valve.
