Abstract

An automated zipper manifold system for remotely monitoring and controlling valves between a mixing chamber and one or more wells. Each line includes a pair of valves, each with an actuator, position indicator, and pressure transducer. A computing device communicates with the valve modules to receive position and pressure data, determine valve states, and issue commands to open, close, or inject grease through dedicated lines. The system can automatically detect leaks, verify seals, and balance pressure within the manifold. A graphical user interface displays real-time valve and pressure data, allowing remote and simultaneous control of multiple valves. Automated routines may be executed to maintain valve performance, reduce non-productive time, and improve operational safety during fracturing or wireline operations.

Abstract

A plug that contacts both an upstream seat and a downstream seat based on a upstream spring creating first forces on the upstream seat and a downstream spring creating second forces on the downstream seat. The first forces may be in a downstream direction and the second forces may be in an upstream direction. Additionally, the upstream chamber and the downstream chambers may be dependent pistons that are configured to create dynamic forces acting upon the plug.
