  • Patent number: 11378103
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a subsea hydraulic control device (10) for hydraulically controlling a subsea module (2). The control device (10) comprises a hydraulic distribution unit (12) with a valve unit (13) and a manifold unit (50), where hydraulic fluid lines are provided in the valve unit (13) and in the manifold unit (50). The hydraulic distribution unit (12) comprises a low pressure hydraulic input port (21) connectable to a low pressure fluid source (LP) and connected to a low pressure fluid line (22) within the hydraulic distribution unit (12), a high pressure hydraulic input port (31) connectable to a high pressure fluid source (HP) and connected to a high pressure fluid line (32) within the hydraulic distribution unit (12), a return port (41) connectable to a return fluid reservoir (R) and connected to a return fluid line (42) within the hydraulic distribution unit (12) and a number of hydraulic output ports (24, 34) connectable to subsea actuators (A) of the subsea module (2).
