Abstract (en)
A technique facilitates a subsea operation such as a well intervention operation. A system (20) comprises a station (22) movably positioned at a subsea location. The station comprises a housing (26) and a lifting arrangement (28) mounted on the housing to enable lifting of the station and movement of the station from one subsea location to another to enable successive subsea operations. The station further comprises a docking station (30) which may have connectors within the housing. In some applications, the station also may comprise a power lead (34) which may be operatively connected to a subsea installation and a transceiver (44) for communicating data to a desired location, e.g. a surface location. The docking station enables docking with an underwater vehicle (32) used to facilitate the subsea servicing operation.
