Claim 16:
17. A method comprising:
(i) sampling a fluid sample using a sampling and measuring module coupled to a first sampling station of an underwater hydrocarbon facility;
(ii) preserving the fluid sample using a container in a picking module coupled to the sampling and measuring module;
(iii) hydraulically connecting the first sampling station, the sampling and measuring module, the picking module and an interface module;
(iv) transferring, via a first navigation module and at least one of the sampling and measuring module, the picking module and the interface module, the fluid sample to an analysis laboratory;
(v) uncoupling the sampling and measuring assembly from the first sampling station;
(vi) coupling the sampling and measuring assembly to a second sampling station; and
(vii) repeating, in sequence, (i) to (vi) at least once.
