1. A subsea system including:
- a frame of a subsea assembly including an intensifier, the intensifier configured to provide additional structural support to the frame and pressurized delivery fluid;
the intensifier including an intensifier chamber and a delivery fluid chamber separated by a piston, the intensifier chamber configured to receive ambient pressure to provide a pressure on the delivery fluid through the piston; and
a regulation system configured to regulate the amount of ambient pressure communicated to the intensifier chamber to maintain the delivery fluid pressure substantially constant as the delivery fluid is depleted.

Abstract
A subsea system including a frame including an intensifier, the intensifier providing structural support to the frame and capable of providing pressurized delivery fluid. The intensifier includes an intensifier chamber and a delivery fluid chamber separated by a piston, the intensifier chamber capable of receiving ambient pressure to provide a pressure on the delivery fluid through the piston. Also, a regulation system regulates the amount of ambient pressure communicated to the intensifier chamber to maintain the delivery fluid pressure substantially constant as the delivery fluid is depleted.
