ABSTRACT:
This specification discloses a subsea system for the production of fluid minerals. The system includes a product gathering network provided with production satellites in which the gas-oil-water ratios of each well are periodically tested and the flow rates are automatically controlled. A power distribution network connects a central power station, either floating or bottom supported, at the site or on land nearby, with the various satellite stations and submerged wellhead units. Provision is made for entry into the satellites and diver maintenance at the submerged wellheads. A rigid transportation pipe transports produced fluids to the water surface. At the lower end of the rigid transportation pipe is a designed break-away section which will be broken if excessive strain is encountered. An inverted funnel is located over the break-away section to trap any escaping fluid.
