Abstract
A subsea fluid distributor comprises a support framework removably mountable and hydraulically connectable to a subsea structure intermediate the subsea structure and an incoming flying lead's terminator; a plate attached to an upper section of the support framework; a fixed bucket and a valve attached to the support framework; a lower framework attached to a lower portion of the support framework; a first hydraulic tube, in fluid communication with the valve, attached to the lower framework; a flying lead junction plate support framework attached to the lower portion of the support framework; a second hydraulic tube, in fluid communication with various subsea equipment, disposed at least partially within the flying lead junction plate support framework; a first remotely operated vehicle (ROV) torque bucket attached to an upper portion of the flying lead junction plate support framework; and a second ROV torque bucket attached to the upper section of the support framework.
