Low frequency power is transmitted over long distances from a surface power supply to a subsea rotating machine, such as a pump or compressor. The low frequency power is used to rotate a motor at low speed. A liquid filled magnetic step-up gear module might be used to increase the low speed motor shaft to a higher speed output shaft that can be used to operate the rotating machine. The magnetic gear module can be configured as a fixed ratio, and the surface power supply can be configured to adjust the power frequency to change the speed of a single subsea rotating machine. In other embodiments, the magnetic gear module can provide a variable gear ratio. A fixed low frequency might be transmitted from the surface and multiple subsea loads can be operated from the same power source, each having their own variable magnetic gear module.
