[0002] Currently, deepwater jacket systems typically incorporate an underwater backup system for the injection, venting, and grouting pipelines. In the event of a pipeline control system failure, a robotic underwater vehicle (ROV) directly connects to the injection, venting, and grouting pipelines underwater to perform the injection, venting, and grouting operations. The underwater injection, venting, and grouting pipeline valves are located on the jacket legs. During offshore installation, these valves can be controlled to vent air from the jacket compartment and inject cement grout. Conventional underwater pipeline valves have the following disadvantages: These valves are exposed on the outside of the jacket legs, making them susceptible to damage from waves and currents during launch and while underwater, directly impacting the proper installation and operation of the deepwater jacket.
