Abstract: A temporary mechanical and fluidic connection with an anchor wall of a subsea tubular may use a substantially solid, reusable lid for a subsea tubular, which comprises a substantially solid upper surface, a predetermined set of lid anchors (20), a predetermined set of selectively activated valves (30), a seal (40) configured to engage an internal wall (101) of the subsea tubular and create a seal between substantially solid upper surface and the internal wall of the subsea tubular, a connector (50), and a controller (60) by maneuvering the substantially solid, reusable lid proximate an open end (102) of a subsea tubular (100), attaching the substantially solid, reusable lid to the open end of the subsea tubular, using the lid anchors (20) to secure the substantially solid, reusable lid to the open end of the subsea tubular, and operatively engaging the seal (40) to create an occlusive seal between substantially solid upper surface and an internal wall (101) of the subsea tubular.

Abstract: An adaptive tooling interface comprises a single motor, disposed at least partially within a housing, which is operatively in communication with a controller and where a first power output and a second power output are operatively in communication with the motor. A drive interface, comprising a external tool interface, is operatively in communication with the motor and configured to mate with and provide power to one or more external tools, which comprise a matching subsea external tool external tooling interface, via the first power output and the second power output. The adaptive tooling interface may be connected to or otherwise integrated into a subsea vehicle system comprising a subsea vehicle.

Abstract: A remotely operated vehicle (ROV) operated fluid stab system for subsea fluid transfer comprises a connector with seal protection and multiple fluid ports, typically more than six fluid ports, to enable multiple flow combinations, both high- and low flow. The connector is relatively short and guide friendly to ease the stabbing operation. The seal is held in place by a nut/threaded insert that is threaded into the stab body.

Abstract: A small size subsea vehicle is designed to comprise the form of a subsea tool and include a common drive interface that allows quick connect/disconnect with the subsea vehicles (ROVs and AUVs). A subsea tool system comprising the small size subsea vehicle comprises a main vehicle 100 with a tool interface comprising a common drive interface 104a and a power interface 104b; and a subsea tool system 102 comprising predetermined footprint configured to fit within a predetermined space, e.g., one smaller than a narrow region or a constricted area where a larger subsea vehicle cannot enter due to size constraints of the larger subsea vehicle; a predetermined set of tools 103, each tool of the predetermined set of tools comprising a common drive interface 103a; and a tool repository 115.

Abstract: An adaptive tooling interface comprises a plurality of motors, disposed at least partially within a housing, which are operatively in communication with a controller and where a first power output is operatively in communication with a first motor of the plurality of motors and a second power output operatively in communication with a second motor of the plurality of motors. A drive interface, comprising a tooling adapter, is operatively in communication with the plurality of motors and configured to mate with and provide power to one or more tools, which comprise a matching subsea tool tooling interface, via the first power output and the second power output. The adaptive tooling interface may be connected to or otherwise integrated into a subsea vehicle system comprising a subsea vehicle.

Abstract: A suction anchor system comprises a substantially tubular suction anchor embeddable in a seabed, a predetermined set of sliding rails, an excavator, and a predetermined set of non-triangular wings disposed about the outer surface of the tubular, and a deployment interface which comprises a deployment cage, a suction anchor lid, and a predetermined set of deployment cage skidding rails disposed about an outer portion of the deployment cage. Using a surface vessel comprising a dispatcher which comprises a storage magazine configured to selectively receive and discharge the suction anchor, a skidding system, and an overhead anchor handler, the suction anchor can be operatively connected and secured to, and placed into fluid communication with, the deployment interface. The deployment interface along its connected suction anchor is lowed from the surface vessel into sea water using the dispatcher until the suction anchor contacts the seabed and allowed to self-penetrate below the seabed due to its own weight.

Abstract: A gripper multi-tool for an underwater vehicle comprises one or more mechanical gripper jaws; a motor; a torque controller operatively in communication with the motor; a cathodic protection (CP) probe disposed on at least one mechanical gripper jaw; a tool interface operatively connected to the motor and configured to selectively receive and/or discharge a tool selected from a plurality of tools; and a power source operatively in communication with the plurality of tools, the torque controller, and the motor. Gripper multi-tool is deployed subsea, such as via an underwater vehicle, and receives and engages a tool selected from a plurality of tools into the tool interface which, once engaged and effectuated, is used to perform a predetermined function. When the predetermined function has completed, the tool may be disengaged and removed from the tool interface and replaced with a further tool to perform a further function.

Abstract: An adaptive tooling interface comprises a plurality of motors, disposed at least partially within a housing, which are operatively in communication with a controller and where a first power output is operatively in communication with a first motor of the plurality of motors and a second power output operatively in communication with a second motor of the plurality of motors. A drive interface, comprising a tooling adapter, is operatively in communication with the plurality of motors and configured to mate with and provide power to one or more tools, which comprise a matching subsea tool tooling interface, via the first power output and the second power output. The adaptive tooling interface may be connected to or otherwise integrated into a subsea vehicle system comprising a subsea vehicle.
