Abstract
An all electric subsea tree can be coupled with a hydraulic pressure unit that is fed off electrical and control lines that are in the umbilical from the surface. In that way hydraulic lines do not need to be separately run from the surface to the tree. Alternatively hydraulic pressure can be generated at a downhole tool using power and control lines running from the tree to the downhole equipment. As another alternative, the downhole equipment can be nun by electric motor located downhole adjacent the downhole equipment and powered and controlled by lines running from the tree to the downhole location.
