Production manifold

A production manifold is the piping arrangement that gathers flow lines from multiple wells and directs them to test or production separators. It consists of a series of headers (Test, Production, High Pressure, Low Pressure) and check valves.

It allows operators to isolate a single well for testing (routing it to the test separator) without interrupting the production of other wells. It is the traffic controller of the production pad.
