  • Publication number: 20250207471
    Abstract: A subsea wellbore monitoring system of the present disclosure includes hanger, plug, and monitoring assemblies. The hanger assembly installs on landing in the wellhead, engages the lock profile, and has a hanger seal sealing in the wellhead. The plug assembly is supported in the hanger assembly and has a plug seal to seal in the landing. Ports of the plug assembly communicate with a bore envelope and an annulus envelope. The monitoring assembly has pressure monitors that communicate with the ports and measure pressure measurements related to the envelopes. The hanger and plug seals can be elastomeric and/or metal elements. The hanger and plug seals are preferably expandable or can be energized outward so the seals can pass any shoulders and profiles when installed in the wellbore and can then seal against the internal surfaces.
