Abstract

Subsea well intervention module for well intervention operations to be performed in a well from a surface vessel via a wireline. The intervention module comprises a supporting structure, an attachment means for removably attaching the supporting structure to a structure of a well head or an additional structure, a well manipulation assembly, a navigation means having at least one propulsion unit for manoeuvring the module in the water, and a control system for controlling the intervention operations. The invention also relates to an intervention system and an intervention method.
