  • Publication number: 20120175125
    Abstract: A subsea oil and gas production Christmas tree control system, serviceable by an ROV subsea, comprises an umbilical and a system controller further comprising an HPU that comprises a manipulatable subsea housing; a subsea hydraulic fluid reservoir; a motor disposed in the housing; and a hydraulic power unit disposed in the housing. Hydrocarbon production may controlled subsea by deploying a modular subsea oil and gas production Christmas tree control system using an ROV; supplying the HPU with hydraulic fluid; providing a predetermined control to a subsea Christmas tree using a Christmas tree control system component; monitoring a Christmas tree control system status; enabling a redundant Christmas tree control system component upon detection of a fault in a Christmas tree control system component paired with the redundant component; and providing status data from the Christmas tree control system to a status data receiver using a data communications link.

  • Patent number: 5265980
    Abstract: A junction plate assembly for a subsea structure having a first junction plate with a plurality of control connections contained therein, a second junction plate with a second plurality of control connections contained therein, and a connector extending generally centrally of the first junction plate for engaging a receptacle of the second junction plate. The first junction plate has an umbilical cable connected to the control connections. The connector is a shaft which extends through the first junction plate and has one end extending into the receptacle of the second junction plate. The end of the shaft has an external acme thread in mating engagement with an internal acme thread of the receptacle. A handle is connected to an opposite end of the shaft for rotating the shaft. The control connections may be either hydraulic or electrical connections.
