Patent attributes
A fracturing tree having fracturing fluid connections horizontally offset from a wellhead is provided. In one embodiment a system includes a fracturing tree mounted over a wellhead. The fracturing tree includes a valve to control flow of a fracturing fluid from the fracturing tree to the wellhead. The fracturing tree also includes a set of multiple goathead connections that are horizontally offset from the wellhead such that, when the fracturing fluid is received in the fracturing tree via the set of multiple goathead connections during a fracturing operation, the fracturing fluid entering the fracturing tree through the multiple goathead connections is combined at a location horizontally offset from the wellhead and is subsequently routed laterally through a shared bore toward the wellhead. Additional systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.
