ABSTRACT:
The establishment of control of a stack of underwater well head equipment is achieved by preliminarily positioning a locating means at the well head, and then:
A. lowering to the well head first and second connector means and effecting reception thereof by the locating means so that the first and second connector means extend in laterally spaced apart relation as determined by the locating means, and
B. lowering to the well head crossover third and fourth connector means and effecting generally vertical coupling thereof to the previously located first and second connector means respectively, for operatively interconnecting the first and second connector means via the crossover connector means.
The first connector means typically has control line communication with a surface control station, and the second connector means typically has control communication with equipment in the stack.
