Abstract
A water system for a hydraulic frac station. The water system includes a water source, a water retention pit, a pump, a riser station, and a water recycling system. The pump is configured to channel water from the retention pit to the riser station and to the hydraulic frac station. The water from the retention pit is channeled to the hydraulic frac station, which in turn is channeled to the recycling system via the riser station.
Claims12
A water system for a hydraulic frac station, the water system comprising:
- a water source;
- a water retention pit;
- a barge positioned within the retention pit, the barge having:
- a frame;
- a plurality of wheels extending from the frame;
- and
- a pump pivotally attached to the frame, the pump is configured to pivot from a first position to a second position relative to the frame;
- a riser station positioned a distance from the water retention pit, the riser station having:
- a first manifold with a first valve;
- and
- a second manifold with a second valve;
- wherein the first manifold is configured to receive water from the water retention pit via a first conduit, which in turn is in fluid communication with the pump carried on the barge;
- and
- a water recycling system in fluid communication with the second manifold of the riser station via a second conduit;
- wherein the pump is configured to channel water from the retention pit to the riser station and the hydraulic frac station via the first conduit;
- wherein water from the retention pit is channeled to the hydraulic frac station, which in turn is channeled to the recycling system via the riser station via the second conduit;
- and
- wherein the water recycling system is configured to treat the water from the hydraulic frac station.
