A hydraulic fracturing pump system includes an electric powered hydraulic fracturing pump positioned on a support structure. The system also includes a suction stabilizer/dampener coupled to a suction end of the pump. The system further includes a compressed gas supply, fluidly coupled to the suction stabilizer/dampener, and positioned on the support structure. The system also includes a flow path between the suction stabilizer/dampener and the compressed gas supply, the flow path including at least one valve and at least one regulator configured to control flow from the compressed gas supply to the suction stabilizer/dampener.

A toe valve to control the injection of fluid into a toe of an oil or gas well and including: a body with a bore, the body having a port adapted to permit fluid flow between the bore and an outlet on an external surface of the toe valve when the port is open; a closure member adapted to move from an initial closed position in which the port is closed, to an open position in which the port is open; and an actuating mechanism which can be actuated to urge the closure member from the initial closed position toward the open position, and which can be reset when the closure member is moving between the closed and open positions to return the closure member to the initial closed position.

A fluid control device includes a housing, a fluid channel defined within the housing, the fluid channel having an inlet, and a restriction assembly. The restriction assembly includes a cantilever device disposed within the fluid channel and defining a restricted fluid path, the cantilever device configured to deform to reduce an area of the restricted fluid path and restrict a flow rate of fluid flowing therethrough based on a property of the fluid.

A wellbore assembly includes a wellbore string configured to be disposed within a wellbore. The wellbore assembly also includes a float collar coupled to a downhole end of the wellbore string. The float collar includes a housing, a check valve, and a sleeve. The housing includes a fluid outlet. The housing defines a fluid port that extends through a wall of the housing. The check valve is disposed within the housing between the fluid port and the fluid outlet. The sleeve is coupled to the wall of the housing uphole of the check valve. The sleeve moves, based on pressure changes of the fluid in the float collar, with respect to the wall of the housing thereby either exposing the fluid port and opening a fluid pathway from the bore to an annulus of the wellbore, or covering the fluid port and blocking the fluid pathway.

The check valve positioned within a production tubing string is configured to open when a differential pressure across the check valve exceeds a specified opening differential pressure. With the check valve closed, a specified volume of gas is flowed from the production tubing string, thereby decreasing the pressure within the production tubing string from a first wellhead pressure to a second, lesser wellhead pressure. Hydrostatic pressure within the production tubing string at the check valve is increased by flowing a specified volume of water into the production tubing string above the check valve to at least partially replace the specified volume of gas. After flowing the water, a specified volume of treatment fluid is injected into the production tubing string at an injection pressure less than the first wellhead pressure and greater than the second wellhead pressure, thereby opening the check valve and flowing the treatment fluid downhole.
