ABSTRACT:
A marine structure for the handling of liquids such as hydrocarbons comprises a substructure including a plurality of cells. A watertight superstructure extends upwardly from at least one but preferably some of the cells to a height above sea level whereat it supports a deck structure. Within one of the cells which includes a superstructure a column is formed, which column extends upwardly from the bottom of the cell to a substantial height, preferably above sea level, and is arranged such that at least an upper portion of the space within the column located below sea level is kept dry so that machinery or the like can be stored thereat. Pipes extending upwardly from the cells can be formed integrally with and even in the walls of the column. The column may extend all the way to the deck.
