A subsea connector (20) is provided for joining a first cable (2) having a first minimum bending radius (MBR) and a second cable (3) having a second minimum bending radius (MBR). The subsea connector is arranged with a first joint device (21, 53) for connection with the first cable and a second joint device (22, 54) for connection with the second cable (3). The subsea connector comprises a conductive member (25, 57) for transfer of electric power between the first and the second cable (2,3), the conductive member having, in an installed position, a U-shape configuration and the radius of curvature of the subsea connector is less than or equal to the first and second minimum bending radii such that at least a portion of the first cable (2) extending from connection with the first joining device (21,53) is arranged essentially parallel with at least a portion of the second cable (3) extending from connection with the second joint device (22,54). The invention also concerns a cable arrangement, a junction box and a method for assembly and installation of a flowline arrangement.
A subsea connector for joining a first cable having a first minimum bending radius and a second cable having a second minimum bending radius, wherein the subsea connector is arranged with a first joint device for connection with the first cable and a second joint device for connection with the second cable, further wherein the subsea connector comprises a conductive member for transfer of electric power between the first and the second cable, the conductive member having, in an installed position, a U-shape configuration with a radius of curvature less than or equal to the first and second minimum bending radii such that at least a portion of the first cable extending from connection with the first joining device is arranged essentially parallel with at least a portion of the second cable extending from connection with the second joint device.
Method for assembly and installation of a flowline arrangement, the flow line arrangement comprises a flowline, a first cable and a second cable for transfer of electric energy to the flowline, wherein the method comprises the following steps of
