Abstract
A frac zipper manifold bridge connector comprises two bridge spools for connecting a well configuration unit of a frac zipper manifold to a frac tree of a wellhead. The connector comprises multiple connections involving threaded flanges, such that the orientation of the bridge spools may be adjusted to ensure that they are correctly aligned with the frac tree. The bridge connector further comprises one or more flow diverters to decrease turbulence and reduce erosion.
