ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns a system for providing storage for hydrocarbons produced at an offshore production facility. A tank assembly having inner and outer tanks defining an annular chamber therebetween and the inner tank defining an inner chamber, has a piling projection extending from one end thereof. A first piping system is connected to the annular chamber and input piping system connected to the inner chamber and an output piping system connected to the inner chamber. The outer chamber is flooded to provide ballast for the system during and after placement of the piling into the soil beneath a platform.
