Claim 18:
19. A method of pressurizing fluid from a low-pressure source with one or more fracturing pumps for delivery to a high-pressure destination, the method comprising:
receiving the fluid at low pressure from the low-pressure source;
controlling communication of the fluid to a pair of first conduits supported on a chassis by controlling communication of the fluid between the pair of the first conduits using a first header valve disposed between a pair of first header chambers, each first header chamber being connected to one of the first conduits;
controlling communication of the fluid from at least one of a plurality of first outlets spaced along a first length of the first conduits, each of the first outlets being supported together on the same chassis and being configured to deliver the fluid at low-pressure to a corresponding one of the one or more fracturing pumps;
receiving the fluid at high pressure from at least one of the one or more fracturing pumps at at least one of a plurality of second inlets of a second conduit supported on the chassis, each of the second inlets being supported together on the same chassis and being configured to receive the fluid at high-pressure;
conveying the fluid along a second length of the second conduit to a second outlet configured to deliver the fluid at high-pressure to the high-pressure destination; and
controlling communication of the fluid to a pair of third conduits supported on the chassis by controlling communication of the fluid between the pair of the third conduits using a second header valve disposed between a pair of second header chambers, each second header chamber being connected to one of the third conduits.
