In this article, a system for hydraulic fracturing a subsurface formation may include a transport unit with hydraulic legs, an electric motor mounted on the transport unit, a fracking pump mounted on a vehicle and configured to be powered by the electric motor.
Abstract
A system for fracturing a subsurface formation may comprise a transport unit with hydraulic legs, an electric motor mounted on the transport unit, a fracking pump mounted on the transport unit and configured to be powered by the electric motor, and an oil tank mounted on the transport unit such that the motor and the fracking pump are above the oil tank. The oil tank may have a first tank height under the pump and a second tank height under the motor and the first tank height may be greater than the second tank height. The oil tank, motor support beam, and pump support beam may form a single structural unit. The system may also include an oil pump for pumping lubricating oil through the fracking pump, an electric motor configured to drive the oil pump, a variable frequency drive configured to control the electric motor.

Systems and methods to enhance intake air flow to a gas turbine engine of a hydraulic fracturing unit

TL;DR: In this paper, an intake expansion wall defining a plurality of intake ports positioned to supply intake air to the gas turbine engine is presented. But the authors do not consider the role of the actuators that are connected to the main housing of the enclosure and the intake expansion assembly.
