A method for controlling a subsea vehicle. The method includes receiving sensor data representing a subsea environment from one or more sensors of the subsea vehicle. The method identifies one or more objects present in the subsea environment based on the sensor data using an artificial intelligence machine. The method transmits at least a portion of the sensor data, including an identification of the one or more objects, to a user interface. The method includes receiving a requested vehicle task from the user interface. The requested vehicle task being selected by a user via the user interface. The method performs the requested vehicle task without vehicle position control from the user.

Systems and methods of pilot assist for subsea vehicles

A method for transmitting signals in a subsea environment includes determining that a quality of an acoustic signal is below a threshold. The acoustic signal travels from a first device, through water in the subsea environment, to a second device. A parameter of the first device, the second device, or both is then adjusted to improve the quality of the acoustic signal when the quality of the acoustic signal is below the threshold.

Subsea oilfield communications system

A wellhead assembly of a well system for installation in a wellbore, the wellhead assembly having a longitudinal axis and including a wellhead housing including a central passage defined by an inner surface, a hanger configured to be received within the passage of the wellhead housing and couple to the inner surface of the housing, a tubular string configured to be received in the passage of the wellhead housing, wherein the tubular string includes a passage, a choke coupled to the tubular string and configured to control a fluid flow through the passage of the tubular string, and a wellhead connector configured to releasably couple to an end of the wellhead housing and including a first passage in fluid communication with passage of the tubular string when the wellhead connector is coupled to the wellhead housing.

Tubular wellhead assembly

A subsea production system for a well including a subsea production tree, a tubing hanger, and a production tubing extending into the well and supported by the tubing hanger. A downhole equipment suspension system includes a suspension head supported directly or indirectly by the production tree above and separately from the tubing hanger. The suspension system also includes downhole equipment inside the production tubing below the tubing hanger and a suspension line extending through the tubing hanger vertical production bore and the production tree vertical bore. The suspension line suspends the downhole equipment from the suspension head.

Subsea production system with downhole equipment suspension system

A guide and protection bushing assembly is mountable in a well production system (e.g., a subsea tree) having an intervention member (e.g., a blowout preventer). The assembly guides a string of components to a cable hanger sealing surface disposed in the production system without damaging the sealing surface. The assembly includes a body having a first end engaging an intervention member, a second end engaging the production system, an outer surface, and an inner through passage that expands radially at the first end to form a funnel shape. In some embodiments, the assembly may further include rollers, leaf springs, or a protective sleeve coupled to biasing members, a plurality of centering disks having a plurality of flexible flaps separated by spacers, and/or centering devices with fins separated by spacers. In some embodiments, the assembly may further include a hydraulically actuated plurality of rams, a piston with a plurality of protective elements, a plurality of nozzle jets, and/or a plurality of bladders.

Variable guide and protection bushing for well conveyance

A spool module for a subsea well production tree and system is presented. The spool module is similar to traditional process modules, except that the spool module includes all its components and their conduits inside one body (or block). This module includes retrievable components used for production and annulus flow lines into one package. The spool module includes the production choke, annulus choke, and conduit bores integral in the block. The spool module includes all of these elements machined into one body having no additional conduits or piping outside of the body. The spool module may also be used in connection with a subsea tree during production of a well, or with several wells on a template or as part of a manifold.
