wet Christmas tree

Not my area, hence the 3, but:

"Furthermore, you certainly would not want to go to an oil company to pick up a Christmas Tree for the year-end holiday: you would wind up with a multi-valve contraption that drillers use at the top of a well casing to control the flow of oil from the well. If you use it
underwater, then it is called a “wet” Christmas tree."

subsea tree valves

If you are translating terms related to subsea (electrical, hidraulic) installations, I recommend this word wich is a kind of industrial valve used under the water.
