A close coupled processing system may include a fluid processing system for producing frac fluid for frac operations, a fluid distribution system for distributing the frac fluid to a plurality of pressurization units, and a large bore fluid connection connecting the fluid processing system and the fluid distribution system.

Close coupled fluid processing system

A hydraulic fracturing system can include valve apparatuses that control the delivery of fluid to high-pressure pumps that supply the fluid to a wellhead. The valve apparatuses can receive electronic signals from a control system to regulate the flow rate of the fluid to the high-pressure pumps. In one or more examples, the flow rate of the fluid can be controlled such that proppant in the fluid remains in solution.
