Abstract: An apparatus for separating a tubular string from a subsea well installation. The apparatus includes a heave compensator tensioning the tubular string, a subsea actuator assembly positioned within the tubular string, a subsea controller in communication with the subsea actuator assembly, a subsea safety tree positioned within the subsea well installation and a fluid delivery subsystem. An output signal generated by the subsea controller responsive to receipt of a predetermined input signal releases a piston of the subsea actuator assembly such that the tension in the tubular string shifts the piston relative to a cylinder energizing fluid in the fluid delivery subsystem to actuate the retainer valve, the shut-in valve assembly, the vent sleeve and the latch assembly, thereby safely separating the tubular string from a subsea well installation.

Abstract: The invention covers the method of supplying services to a device such as a Subsea Intervention Tree and Retainer Valve using conduits routed through a tubing Hanger. The method of this invention provides control of equipment sitting within the BOP stack and/or marine riser using control systems located external to the Marine riser. This removes the need for a costly umbilical/conduit to be run alongside the casing or tubing string within the marine riser, thereby reducing cost and risk of damage during deployment of the string. Running time will be significantly reduced saving valuable rig time. Also, in deeper waters complex Electro/Hydraulic or MUX control systems traditionally run within the Marine riser and/or the BOP stack as a part of the Landing string can be replaced by a local control system located outside the Marine riser on or around the Production Tree.

Abstract: A method and system of operating a landing string utilized on a floating platform. The landing string is disposed within a marine riser, with the marine riser being connected to a subsea production tree, and wherein the subsea production tree contains internal conduits communicating controls through a series of stab passageways. The method comprises providing a tubing hanger operatively connected to the landing string, delivering hydraulic or electrical controls from the floating platform through a control system umbilical to a junction plate operatively attached to the subsea production tree. The method further comprises landing the tubing hanger into the subsea production tree, establishing control of the tubing hanger by providing the hydraulic controls to the tubing hanger with the series of stab passageways through the subsea production tree, and establishing control of the completion bottom hole assembly with the stab passageways.
