<p>A subsea hydrocarbon cooling and heat transfer system is provided. The system includes one or more subsea hydrocarbon process fluid heat exchangers arranged in heat exchange communication between a hydrocarbon process fluid and a cooling medium fluid, a cooling medium fluid distribution pipe system connected to the hydrocarbon process fluid heat exchangers, and a subsea cooling unit for cooling the cooling medium fluid. After passing through one of said heat exchangers, a heated cooling medium can act as a heat transfer fluid to re-heat another hydrocarbon process fluid.</p> |
