ABSTRACT:
Floating system comprising a ring shaped body with structure for connecting anchor chains. The ring shaped body is rotable around a vertical axis in relation to the floating system. Fluid conduits extend downwards from the floating system through the ring shaped body and are connected to a rotatable conduit coupling. The rotatable conduit coupling is installed on the floating system above the ring shaped body by a cardan joint with two horizontal axes, which cardan joint is located at the outside of the conduit coupling. The ring shaped body has an inner central opening of such large dimensions that the conduits or hoses running from conduit coupling downwards through that opening are maintained free of the ring shaped body in each angular position allowed by the cardan joint.
