Abstract

A method for riserless intervention of a subsea well includes: lowering a pressure control assembly (PCA) (100) from a vessel (175) to a subsea production tree (50); fastening the PCA to the tree; deploying a plug running tool (PRT) (300) into the PCA, wherein the PRT comprises a latch (350), an anchor (310), and a stroker (301); engaging the latch with a plug of the tree; engaging the anchor with the PCA; and operating the stroker to pull the latch and the plug from the tree.
