Abstract

A subsea system includes a first foundation structure supporting a first compressor train and having a connection interface for connecting to a second foundation structure supporting an additional compressor train. The first compressor train includes a first compressor having an inlet connectable via a fluid line to a well flow line. A compressed fluid line having a flow regulation device is connected to an outlet of the first compressor and to a common outlet for compressed fluid. A first connection line is connected to the compressed fluid line at a position upstream of the flow regulation device, and a third connection line is connected to the fluid line at a position upstream of the first compressor. Each of the first and third connection lines includes a flow regulating device and is configured to connect to the additional compressor train. A second connection line is connected to the compressed fluid line at a position downstream of the flow regulation device and is configured to connect to the additional compressor train to thereby connect the additional compressor train to the common outlet.
