Abstract: The technology of subsea gas compressor has provided a new development direction for deep sea oil and gas resources exploitation. Its technical theory has matured and is gradually being put into commercial application. This paper introduces the advantages of subsea gas compressors, expounds the development and application of subsea gas compressors technology, including MAN, OneSubsea, GE’s subsea gas compressors technology development status, and its application in Asgard project, Gulfaks project and Ormen Lange project respectively. The key technology of subsea gas compressor is analyzed to provide technical reference for the future research and application of subsea gas compressor in deep water oil and gas field.
