REMOTE SUB-SEA LUBRICATOR

摘要

The present invention involves a remote sub sea lubricator assembly (10) for inserting a wireline tool into a sub sea well. The assembly comprises an elongated tube (75) with an axial passage through it that is designed to receive the wireline tool. The remote sub sea lubricator (10) is lowered beneath the surface of the sea for connection to a sub sea well. Once connected to the sub sea well, the wireline tool is released from the lubricator (10) into the well. The lubricator (10) enables the wireline tool to enter and exit the sea well without sea water entering the well.
