Subsea wellhead monitoring and controlling
Abstract:
A subsea well assembly includes a high pressure wellhead housing; and a port for monitoring and/or controlling fluid within an annulus within the high pressure wellhead housing. The port extends through the high pressure wellhead housing. The subsea well assembly further includes a wellhead support for laterally supporting the high pressure wellhead housing, wherein, at an axial height of the port, the wellhead support surrounds the high pressure wellhead housing at circumferentially discrete locations and the port is located at a circumferential location where the high pressure wellhead housing is not covered by the wellhead support. A method of monitoring and/or controlling fluid within the annulus within the subsea well assembly is also provided.
