Abstract: This invention relates to a subsea actuator with visual position indicators and associated methods for subsea energy infrastructure, such as in the oil and gas industry. The actuator may include a housing with a window, an actuation member, and a drive mechanism that moves the actuation member between at least two positions. The invention also relates to a method of that involves providing a housing with a window, connecting the actuation member to a drive mechanism, and indicating the position of the actuation member through the window. This visual inspection can be performed directly or via a camera, even in the event of a power failure, using a passive, unpowered indicator. The indication can be displayed on an ROV panel, ensuring reliable remote monitoring and operation of the subsea actuator.

Abstract: The invention provides a gate valve for control of production of petroleum, distinctive in that the valve comprises a coating or hard facing on the internal bore surface exposed to flow of petroleum and associated fluids and solids.

Abstract: The invention provides a valve useful as a production valve in or connected to a production tree subsea, and other similar uses subsea or topside, the valve comprises a valve element, a valve element pressure housing, an actuator, a stem and a bonnet, the actuator is via the stem operatively arranged to close or open a fluid passageway through the valve element, the bonnet enclose the stem and is connected to the valve element pressure housing and seals are arranged between the stem and the bonnet for sealing against the pressure of the valve element pressure housing. The valve is distinctive in that the valve comprises at least one seal for sealing between stem and bonnet, the seal having identical inner sealing diameter against the stem and outer sealing against a single body or element of the bonnet.

Abstract: Subsea wellhead assembly with an inner bore for conduction of produced hydrocarbons, equipped with a cooling means for cooling a section of the wellhead assembly exposed to heating by said hydrocarbons.

Abstract: A light weight lifting tool (10) for lowering and retrieving subsea equipment to and from the sea bed is disclosed. The equipment includes an upper coupling part in the form of a connector spool piece (15) having at least one circumferential ring groove (16) for use in making engagement with the lifting tool (10). The lifting tool (10) includes a housing (1) designed to enclose and receive the connector spool piece (15). The lifting tool (10) further includes a number of latch segments (8) having at least one radially inwards directed projection (8?) designed for engagement with the at least one ring groove (16), and an activating device (6) arranged to bring the latch segments (8) in and out of engagement with the at least one ring groove (16) by operation of the activating device (6).
