Science - Petroleum Eng/Sci / header box
English term or phrase: header box
If anyone could help me with some suggestions for "header box" (petro)
Marcia buckley's dictionary of petroleum terms defines "header" as "coletor principal" (brazilian portuguese) and "header tank" as "radiador" or "tanque de ligação" (which to me are quite different)

Examples for context:
"Drilling mud systems for drilling rigs include a header box or flow-line gas trap to at least partially separate gas from the drilling mud returned to the surface"

"The unit 128 can be a gas trap that at least partially separates the mud from gas entrained therein (e.g., a header box gas trap that is behind the shale shakers, with mud passing therethrough before the rock cuttings and sand have been separated from the mud)".

Thanks!
