gathering line Explanation: Does it sound like it could be this? "In the oil and gas industry, flowlines are pipe lines that connect a single wellhead to a manifold or process equipment. In a larger well field, multiple flowlines may connect individual wells to a manifold. Then a gathering line may transfer the flow from the manifold to a pre-process stage or to a transportation facility or vessel." https://www.ipieca.org/resources/energy-efficiency-solutions... In the Schlumberger glossary they're described as follows: "gathering lines English | Español 1. n. [Production Facilities] The pipes used to transport oil and gas from a field to the main pipeline in the area." https://www.glossary.oilfield.slb.com/en/Terms/g/gathering_l...

Here's another example from Schlumberger: "header English | Español ... 2. n.

As the reservoir is produced, wells may fall in pressure and ..." |
