A penetrator assembly, for high pressure and/or subsea applications, includes a body. The body includes a first end surface, in operation subject to a pressure of a high pressure environment; a second end surface distanced from the first end surface, which in operation is subject to a pressure of a low pressure environment; at least one connecting passage connecting the first end surface to the second end surface; at least one groove extending from the first end surface towards the second end surface, being distanced from second end surface and surrounding the connecting passage and including an annular opening on the first end surface; and annular lips between a first portion of connecting passage adjacent to the first end surface and the groove, the annular lips in operation being subject to the pressure of the high pressure environment and providing a pressure balance around the first portion of connecting passage.
A penetrator device for at least one of high pressure and subsea applications comprising:
