A technique facilitates controlling fluid flows with a modular manifold. The modular manifold has a manifold base which is positioned at a desired surface or subsea location. Various types of modular units may be deployed to and/or retrieved from the manifold base according to the desired control of fluid flows with respect to a well or a plurality of wells. Each modular unit may be selectively coupled or decoupled along the manifold base to adjust the configuration of the manifold for a given job or over time to accommodate changing conditions.

Modular manifold

A fluid flow control assembly includes a first pipe-in-pipe assembly comprising an inner tubular member disposed in an outer tubular member, wherein the inner tubular member comprises an inner bore and an annulus is formed between the inner tubular member and the outer tubular member, a terminating bulkhead assembly coupled to the first pipe-in-pipe assembly, wherein fluid communication is provided between a bore of the bulkhead assembly and the inner bore of the inner tubular member while fluid communication is restricted between the bore of the bulkhead assembly and the annulus of the first pipe-in-pipe assembly, and an annulus conduit coupled to a radial port of the first pipe-in-pipe assembly, wherein fluid communication is provided between the annulus conduit and the annulus of the first pipe-in-pipe assembly while fluid communication is restricted between the annulus conduit and the inner bore of the inner tubular member.
