ABB’s pioneering subsea power distribution and conversion technology system has proven commercially viable, according to the company, bringing potential for cleaner, safer and more sustainable offshore oil and gas production following the completion of a 3,000-hour shallow water test.
Offshore energy companies will be able to access a reliable supply of up to 100 megawatts of power, over distances up to 600 kilometers and down to 3,000 meters water depth. This is all achievable with a single cable with little or no maintenance for up to 30 years, making oil and gas production feasible in far out and deep ocean environments.
