Abstract: A flexible deployment system is used to deploy subsea/downhole well equipment or modules from a multi-purpose vessel without requiring a moon pool and a derrick or tower. The deployment system may include the vessel and a deployment frame disposed on the vessel. The deployment frame includes a protruding section extending as a cantilever beyond an external edge of the vessel, and the protruding section includes an aperture formed therein to facilitate construction of the well equipment or modules through the protruding section. The deployment system also includes an actuation assembly coupled to the protruding section to selectively transition the protruding section to a collapsed, split, or retracted orientation out of a deployment path of the well equipment or modules. The system allows for controlled deployment of well equipment or modules including at least a string of downhole tools or tubulars coupled end to end from the side of the vessel in a single trip.

Abstract: A system including a subsea module, a tool hanger, and an in-well tool string coupled to and extending from a lower portion of the tool hanger is provided. The subsea module includes a subsea spool with a main bore formed therethrough, and the main bore includes a tool hanger interface. The subsea module also includes a connector for mounting the subsea module on a subsea component, wherein the connector includes a grip configured to engage the subsea component, and a first seal coupled to the connector and configured to seal the connector against the subsea component. The tool hanger is disposed within the main bore and coupled to the tool hanger interface via at least a second seal configured to seal the tool hanger against the main bore of the subsea spool. The in-well tool string is configured to couple the tool hanger to an in-well tool.

Abstract: A wellhead based well control arrangement including a pressure control head having a gripping element configured to grip an outside surface of a well head and a seal element configured to seal against an inside surface of the same well head, a perforating, packer, and circulation mandrel extending from the pressure control head. A method for controlling a well at a well head for plugging and abandonment operations including running an arrangement as above into engagement with a well head, engaging the gripping element to an outside surface of the wellhead, sealing the seal element to an inside surface of the well head, and setting a packer of the mandrel.

Abstract: Adapter (15) for an oil or gas field Christmas tree (4), said adapter (15) comprising a first interface (16) to connect the adapter (15) to a corresponding Christmas tree interface (17) on the top of the Christmas tree (4), distinctive in that the adapter (15) further comprises a second interface (18), at least one feed-through, and at least one of: a well barrier element, an internal profile for setting a plug, a hanger or a combined hanger and plug.

Abstract: A cable arrangement for feeding power and signals to downhole equipment, such as an electrically submersible pump (6), within an oil or gas well, comprising an upper suspension element (15), a lower connector (22), a docking station (11?) for the downhole equipment coupled to said connector (22), and a cable (8a), comprising lines for power and signal. The cable extends between, and is coupled to, the upper suspension element (15) and the lower connector (22). The docking station (11?) is adapted for attachment to the inner surface of a production tubing (5), that a narrow gap is formed between the production tubing (5) and the downhole equipment (6). The cable (8) is shaped to fit inside the gap by having a first dimension in the radial direction of the gap, which is smaller than the gap and a second dimension in the tangential direction of the gap, which is substantially larger than the first dimension.
