(offshore-energy.biz) U.S.-headquartered energy technology giant Baker Hughes has launched an all-electric subsea production system, marking a step towards full electrification in offshore operations.
According to Baker Hughes, the system delivers a fully electric topside-to-downhole solution, designed to integrate with existing subsea tree designs or retrofit electro-hydraulic trees.
The move aims to slash costs, installation time, and complexity, while boosting production control, reliability, and cutting carbon emissions throughout a field’s lifespan.
The modular system is built for both shallow and deepwater developments, with applications extending to subsea carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) fields and long-offset tieback projects. By eliminating hydraulics, the technology is set to drive down costs and streamline subsea installations.
“Hydrocarbons will remain key sources of global energy for decades, and it is essential that these resources are produced with minimal carbon footprint,” said Amerino Gatti, Executive Vice President of Oilfield Services & Equipment at Baker Hughes.
“By electrifying the production value chain, we can enhance operations to be cleaner, safer, and more efficient, while continuing to supply the energy required worldwide.”
