Narrative:
During the climb segment of flight; we received an engine hydraulic pump low pressure light system B. A short time later we received an additional master caution to include the electric standby pump system B. System B hydraulic pressure indicated zero. The quantity also indicated zero. We [advised ATC]; completed all associated checklist and returned to the departure airport for an uneventful landing.possibly the system B engine driven hydraulic pump failed resulting in the total loss of system B hydraulic fluid.
