ABSTRACT:
A mudmat foundation for supporting an item of subsea equipment on the sea floor comprises a mudmat on which the item of subsea equipment may be supported and a plurality of legs which are pivotably connected to and depend downwardly from the mudmat. The legs are free to pivot outwardly relative to the mudmat upon insertion of the legs into the sea floor to thereby increase the load bearing capacity of the mudmat.
