Abstract
A control system for a subsea gas compression system. The control system includes a subsea control system comprising a plurality of process sensors measuring process parameters of the compression system, a compressor controller configured to generate control commands controlling the motor and the valve based on measurements of the process parameters from the sensors, and an electric device including hardware and software. The electric device is arranged to receive measurements from the process sensors and the compressor controller is integrated in the electric device. The electric device is any of an actuator for controlling the valve position, a variable speed drive for controlling the motor driving the compressor by adjusting the frequency of the power supplied to the motor, a switchgear connected to the variable speed drive for turning on and off the variable speed drive, or an uninterruptible power supply for providing emergency power to the control system.
