Concentric control lines have an outer line disposed about one or more inner lines. Encapsulated together, the lines only require one penetration through the wellhead to extend downhole. At the wellhead, the lines communicate with an operating system, which can provide hydraulics, electric power, signals, or the like for downhole components. Beyond the wellhead, the concentric lines extend along the tubing to a manifold. The outer line sealably terminates at the manifold's inlet, while the inner conduit passes out an outlet with a sealed fitting to connect to a downhole component. A downhole line couples to an outlet of the manifold and communicates internally with the outer conduit terminated at the manifold's inlet. This downhole line can then extend to the same downhole component or some different component.

1. A multiple control line system for communicating with an output uphole of a wellhead and with first and second inputs downhole of the wellhead, the system comprising: a multiple control line having an outer control line disposed about an inner control line, the outer control line having a proximal end in communication with the output, the inner control line having a proximal end capped off inside the outer control line and having a distal end in communication with the second input; anda manifold deploying downhole of the wellhead, the manifold connected to a distal end of the outer control line and passing the inner control line, communicating with the second input, through the manifold, the manifold connecting a separate control line, communicating with the first input, in fluid communication with the distal end of the outer control line. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the manifold comprises: an inlet disposed on the manifold and sealing to the distal end of the outer control line with the inner control line disposed therein;a first outlet disposed on the manifold and sealing to the separate control line, the first outlet communicating the outer control line with the separate control line; anda second outlet disposed on the first manifold and sealing to the inner control line. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein a fastener sealably affixes the distal end of the outer control line to the inlet. 4. The system of claim 2, wherein a first fastener sealably affixes a distal end of the separate control line to the first outlet. 5. The system of claim 4, wherein a second fastener sealably affixes the inner control line to the second outlet. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the outer control line conveys a fluid medium. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein the inner control line contains a different medium than the outer control line. 8. The system of claim 1, further comprising at least one downhole component in communication with the separate control line and the inner control line. 9. The system of claim 8, wherein the inner control line offsets hydrostatic pressure at the at least one downhole component. 10. The system of claim 8, wherein the at least one downhole component comprises a deep-set safety valve in communication with the separate control line and the inner control line. 11. The system of claim 10, wherein the first input comprises a first actuator operable to open a closure of the deep-set safety valve; and wherein the second input comprises a second actuator operable to act against the first actuator. 12. The system of claim 1, further comprising an operating system disposed uphole of the wellhead and having the output in communication with the outer control line. 13. The system of claim 12, wherein the operating system comprises a hydraulic pump for the output. 14. The system of claim 12, further comprising at least one downhole component in communication with the separate control line and the inner control line. 15. The system of claim 14, wherein the at least one downhole component comprises a deep-set safety valve in communication with the separate control line and the inner control line. 16. The system of claim 1, wherein the proximal end of the inner control line terminates below the wellhead and comprises a cap capping off the proximal end. 17. The system of claim 1, wherein the outer control line is charged with first hydraulic pressure; and wherein the inner control line is charged with second hydraulic pressure configured to offset hydrostatic pressure in the outer control line. 18. The system of claim 1, further comprising a one-way regulator connecting fluid communication from the separate control line to the inner control line.
