A system includes a subsea geothermal power system. The subsea geothermal power system includes a plurality of well connections configured to couple to a plurality of geothermal wells. The subsea geothermal power system also includes a geothermal power plant fluidly coupled to the plurality of well connections. The geothermal power plant is configured to receive thermal energy from the plurality of geothermal wells and convert the thermal energy into at least one of electrical energy and mechanical energy. The system also includes a subsea station having one or more pumps, one or more compressors, one or more separators, one or more energy storage devices, or a combination thereof. The subsea station is at least partially powered by the at least one of electrical energy and mechanical energy produced by the subsea geothermal power system.

Geothermal power systems and methods for subsea systems

A system includes a subsea geothermal power system. The subsea geothermal power system includes a well connection configured to couple to a hydrocarbon well. The subsea geothermal power system also includes a geothermal power plant fluidly coupled to the well connection. The geothermal power plant is configured to receive thermal energy from a well fluid received from the hydrocarbon well and convert the thermal energy into at least one of electrical energy and mechanical energy. The system also includes a subsea equipment at least partially powered by at least one of the electrical energy and the mechanical energy produced by the subsea geothermal power system.

A system includes a subsea geothermal power system. The subsea geothermal power system includes a separator configured to separate a well fluid from a hydrocarbon well into a first fluid flow and a second fluid flow. The subsea geothermal power system also includes a geothermal power plant coupled to the separator. The geothermal power plant is configured to receive thermal energy from the second fluid flow and convert the thermal energy into at least one of electrical energy and mechanical energy. The separator is at least partially powered by the at least one of electrical energy and mechanical energy produced by the subsea geothermal power system.

A latching connector receptacle includes a receptacle body configured to receive a plug, a biased release ring coupled to the receptacle body, and a latch dog assembly coupled to the receptacle body. The latch dog assembly includes a moveable latch dog configured to matingly engage the plug and matingly engage the release ring, and a moveable latch indicator configured to move in response to movement of the latch dog.
