SUBSEA POWER CABLE FOR LARGE WATER DEPTH AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR SUCH A SUBSEA POWER CABLE

摘要

A subsea power cable has been disclosed. The subsea power cable comprises a cable core (2) comprising an electrical conductor (3) and an electrically insulating layer (4) that is arranged radially outside of the electrical conductor (3); an intermediate layer (7) arranged radially outside of the electrically insulating layer (4); and a water barrier layer (5) arranged radially outside of the intermediate layer (7). The intermediate layer (7) comprising a material having a bulk modulus higher than 1 GPa. An outer sheath layer (6) may optionally be arranged radially outside of the water barrier layer (5). A corresponding method for manufacturing a subsea power cable (1) has also been disclosed.
