  • Patent number: 10246963
    Abstract: A technique facilitates control of subsea equipment by providing a modular electro-hydraulic control system which can be used with various types of subsea equipment. The modular system is constructed to accommodate high axial loading while also withstanding high bending forces. Additionally, the components of the modular system are constructed and arranged to enable the modular system to fit through a rotary table of a rig. Depending on the parameters of a given application, the modular control system may be utilized for open water operations and in-riser operations.

  • Patent number: 10161244
    Abstract: A technique facilitates pressure testing of seals along a tubing hanger, such as a tubing hanger used in a subsea application. In some applications, the tubing hanger is sealed along its exterior with an upper tubing hanger seal and a lower tubing hanger seal. A valve assembly is deployed along a fluid passageway which is routed to the tubing hanger seals. The valve assembly may be selectively actuated to a test position, e.g. a closed position, which enables pressure isolation and pressure testing of the tubing hanger seals. The valve assembly may also be selectively utilized to introduce fluids into the formation below the tubing hanger.

  • Publication number: 20050233701
    Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically adjusting an output driver are invented and disclosed. One embodiment comprises receiving a first signal. Applying the first signal to a first tuning element to generate a reference signal. Receiving a second signal. Applying the second signal to a second tuning element to generate a test signal, wherein the second tuning element is configured similarly to the first tuning element. Sampling the reference signal to generate a time-sampled reference signal. Sampling the test signal to generate a time-sampled test signal. Integrating the time-sampled reference signal and the time-sampled test signal to generate an error signal. Then, applying the error signal to adjust an output driver.
