Quick conduit connection system

A fracturing system comprising:

• a fracturing fluid conduit comprising first and second protrusions;
• a quick connect apparatus to connect the fracturing fluid conduit to surface fracturing equipment, the quick connect apparatus including a segmented clamp, wherein the segmented clamp has multiple clamp segments mounted on a plate of a shared support, and the multiple clamp segments are configured to open and close about an end portion of the fracturing fluid conduit;
• and
• a landing porch coupled to the plate of the shared support, wherein the landing porch and the segmented clamp are disposed on a same side of the plate of the shared support, the landing porch comprises opposite first and second plates spaced apart from one another about a central axis of the segmented clamp, the first plate defines a first slot and the second plate defines a second slot, the first and second slots extend in an axial direction along the central axis of the segmented clamp, the end portion of the fracturing fluid conduit is configured to move between the first and second plates of the landing porch, and the first and second protrusions of the fracturing fluid conduit are configured to move in the axial direction along the first and second slots in the respective first and second plates to guide the end portion of the fracturing fluid conduit into the segmented clamp.

A method comprising:

• moving an end portion of a fracturing fluid conduit toward a quick connect apparatus having a segmented clamp mounted on a support plate of a shared support, wherein the fracturing fluid conduit comprises first and second protrusions;
• moving the end portion of the fracturing fluid conduit between first and second plates of a landing porch coupled to the support plate of the shared support, wherein the landing porch and the segmented clamp are disposed on a same side of the support plate of the shared support, the first and second plates are spaced apart from one another about a central axis of the segmented clamp, the first plate defines a first slot and the second plate defines a second slot, and the first and second slots extend in an axial direction along the central axis of the segmented clamp;
• moving the first and second protrusions of the fracturing fluid conduit in the axial direction along the first and second slots in the respective first and second plates to guide the end portion of the fracturing fluid conduit into the segmented clamp;
• and
• securing the end portion of the fracturing fluid conduit to surface fracturing equipment via the quick connect apparatus, wherein securing the end portion of the fracturing fluid conduit to surface fracturing equipment via the quick connect apparatus includes rotating an externally threaded fastener to close the segmented clamp about the end portion of the fracturing fluid conduit.
