Abstract
A wet-mate connection is used in a well and comprises first and second connection assemblies and an actuator. The first connection assembly includes at least one first connector for at least one first control line. The second connection assembly is configured to connect with the first connection assembly and includes at least one second connector for at least one second control line. The second connector is movable on the second connection assembly between a retracted condition and an extended condition. In the extended condition, the second connector can mate with the first connector to communicate the first and second control lines with one another. The actuator is disposed on the second connection assembly and is configured to move the second connector at least from the retracted condition to the extended condition.
