An activation frame for use by a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) to activate a subsea pipeline compression activated repair connector having no independent means of activation. The activation frame includes hydraulics and a control for the ROV to actuate the hydraulics. During installation, the hydraulics on the frame activate the pipe repair connector and form a seal between the connector and the pipe. The hydraulics, along with the frame, are separated from the connector after activation and returned to the surface. |
