HIGH VOLTAGE SUBMARINE CABLE SYSTEMS

A system for transmission of power offshore comprises two or more power stations operably connected with a high voltage cable system. The high voltage cable system may comprise a dynamic, dry or wet type high voltage submarine cable of varying length configured to transmit at least about 100 megawatts of power. In some cases the dynamic, dry or wet type high voltage submarine cable comprises a first end connected to an offshore power station and second end connected to a static submarine cable system which is connected to an onshore power station. The systems may facilitate transmission of power for applications such as compressing and/or pumping subsea natural gas in deep water.
