"The motor is cooled by process gas and directly coupled to the barrel type compressor."
Now that is interesting.

I thought some other manufacturers have successfully built already and sold same concept for subsea application (hermetically sealed centrifugal compressor with magnetic bearings); namely GE and Siemens.
MAN Diesel & Turbo is quite known for being pioneer in this technology ; they have developped their well know Mopico concept and have this in their fleet since quite few decades now ; it is an hermetically sealed compressor with magnetic bearings and the motor is cooled with process gas, however it is for surface applications not subsea ; anyway the technology is similar and subsea is derivated from that.

I have attached the latest info I received from GE, which explains it some more.
