ABSTRACT:
A marine structure for guiding a plurality of ducts from deeper to higher submerged devices such as an oil well at the sea bottom and a production or storage station, respectively. The apparatus provided in accordance with the present invention compensates for relative movement between the higher and lower device by providing a rigid column having pivots at both the higher and lower devices. A plurality of ducts are attached to the rigid column and are connected to a corresponding plurality of higher ducts by similar pivot means. The higher ducts are arranged at the higher device so as to allow for relative longitudinal movement of the higher ducts with respect to the higher device.
