Ten years ago, a future where subsea fields and their power-hungry process equipment could be fully electrified, enabling long step-outs to tap remote reserves with lean new infrastructure architectures, lit the fuse for a spate of investment in subsea power distribution.
The result, following at least two major joint industry projects (JIP) and tens of millions of dollars of investment, is that subsea power distribution is now a ready technology, waiting for its first application.
GE Oil & Gas (as was) qualified a subsea power distribution system back in 2016, including variable speed drives (VSDs), switchgear, and power protection, based on existing components marinized in pressure tolerant housings. The system was developed to provide power over a 120 km distance to the Ormen Lange subsea compression project in Norway, only for Shell to decide against the project. ....
