1. n. []

An assembly of components and controls necessary to provide a hydraulic power supply. In modern oilfield activities, many systems are hydraulically powered, including the majority of mobile systems such as slickline units, coiled tubing units and snubbing units. In most cases, a diesel engine is the prime mover, providing an independent power supply that is harnessed to the necessary hydraulic pump and control systems.
