Abstract

See full text

A floating platform intended to be anchored to the sea bed incorporates a substantially vertical tether. The tether is fitted with a gas-operated tension spring device capable of generating an elastic tensile force in the tether. Means is provided for varying the nominal tensile force which the spring device is capable of exerting. The tether may include an adjustor nut movable along a screw-threaded portion of the tether so as to be engageable with an adjustor nut adaptor supported by the platform.
