Abstract: An offshore power distribution system includes first cables each having a first dry mate connection at a first end and each connecting to an offshore power generator unit at a second end, a subsea junction box at a sea floor, a second cable extending from the junction box to a subsea transformer station at the sea floor and connecting with the transformer station, and a third cable extending from the transformer station to an onshore receiver. Each first dry mate connection terminates in the junction box. The second cable has a second dry mate connection at an end thereof. The second dry mate connection terminates inside the junction box and is operatively connected to each first dry mate connection. The power distribution system is configured to transmit electric power from the power generator unit, via the first cables, the second cable, and the third cable, to the receiver.

Abstract: Subsea heating assembly, comprising a component interface cable (9) in association with a subsea component (7?) to be heated. The component interface cable receives power from an electric power source. The power source comprises an induction coupler (100) with core rings which surround an alternating current carrying source cable (5), and a winding cable (107) wound around the core ring The winding cable connects to the component interface cable. The induction coupler comprises an upper section (100a) with first core parts (101a) and a lower section (100b) with second core parts (101b). The winding cable is arranged in the upper section. The first core parts are aligned with second core parts when the upper section is landed on the lower section. The upper section is removable from the lower section.

Abstract: A method and system for starting and operating an electrically driven load, e.g. a compressor or pump, by power supply from a mechanical driver, e.g. a turbine or combustion engine, whereby the load is mechanically connected to a first electrical machine, and the mechanical driver is mechanically connected to a second electrical machine. The first electrical machine is electrically interconnected to the second electrical machine at a standstill or when the first and or second machine have low speed. In an acceleration phase, the first electrical machine is accelerated by accelerating the second electrical machine with the mechanical driver. When the first electrical machine has reached a predefined rotational speed, the first machine is synchronized with a local electrical power network and connected it to that network.
