Method and device for subsea removal of cuttings from a borehole by means of ejector (5), pump (3) and suction hose (6), the ejector (5) being powered by a pump (3) that is rigidly attached to ROV (2), said ejector (5) being one with external nozzle, while said ROV (2) with pump (3) is connected to
Method and device for subsea removal of cuttings from a borehole by means of ejector (5), pump (3) and suction hose (6), the ejector (5) being powered by a pump (3) that is rigidly attached to ROV (2), said ejector (5) being one with external nozzle, while said ROV (2) with pump (3) is connected to the ejector only when removal of cuttings is to take place.

The invention claimed is: 1. Device for removal of cuttings from a borehole with the use of an ejector, comprising: a first unit in the form of an ROV including a rigidly attached ejector pump and a connecting hose attached to the ejector pump, the connecting hose terminating at an opposite end in
The invention claimed is: 1. Device for removal of cuttings from a borehole with the use of an ejector, comprising: a first unit in the form of an ROV including a rigidly attached ejector pump and a connecting hose attached to the ejector pump, the connecting hose terminating at an opposite end in a first coupling part; and a second unit movable with respect to the ROV, and comprising an ejector having a suction portion attached to a suction hose, a discharge portion, and a nozzle having an outlet disposed between the suction portion and the discharge portion and an inlet connected to a conduit having at an end opposite to the nozzle an inlet provided with a second coupling part, said first coupling part and said second coupling part comprising a selective rapid coupling means including a locking member operable for locking together and unlocking the first and second coupling parts by at least one of a rotational and axial movement, said first unit comprising an ROV linkage connectable to said locking member, and constructed and arranged for operating said locking member, to enable thereby rapid coupling of the ejector to the connecting hose, and rapid uncoupling of the ejector from the connecting hose. 2. Device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the suction hose has an inlet end opposite to the ejector comprising a first coupling part of a second coupling, arranged to be selectively connected to a second coupling part of the second coupling of a guide base at a borehole. 3. Device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the ejector pump supplies the ejector with water, and is powered by a power supply for the ROV. 4. Device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the ejector is arranged at an outlet end of the suction hose. 5. Device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a discharge hose or pipe is connected to an outlet side of the ejector for transportation of sediment further away from a borehole. 6. Device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the suction hose and the ejector have a common, substantially constant cross section. 7. Device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the ejector has an outlet end of gradually increasing cross section. 8. Device for removal of cuttings from a borehole with the use of an ejector, comprising: a first unit in the form of an ROV including a rigidly attached ejector pump and a connecting hose attached to the ejector pump, the connecting hose terminating at an opposite end in a first coupling part; and a second unit movable with respect to the ROV, and comprising an ejector having a suction portion attached to a suction hose, a discharge portion, and a nozzle having an outlet disposed between the suction portion and the discharge portion and an inlet connected to a conduit having at an end opposite to the nozzle an inlet provided with a second coupling part, said first coupling part and said second coupling part including a locking member operable by the ROV for locking and unlocking the first and second coupling parts by at least one of a rotational and axial movement, said first unit comprising an ROV linkage connectable to said locking member, and constructed and arranged for operating said locking member, to enable thereby rapid coupling of the ejector to the connecting hose, and rapid uncoupling of the ejector from the connecting hose, said ejector being attached at a suction portion to a first coupling part of an additional coupling, the first coupling part of the additional coupling being constructed and arranged for selective attachment to a second coupling part of the additional coupling, the second coupling part of the additional coupling being connected to a guide base around a borehole, the ejector having an outlet side connected to a discharge hose. 9. Device as claimed in claim 8, additionally comprising a selectively coupled extension hose disposed between the ejector and the ejector pump.
