FOUNDATION STRUCTURE OF AN OFFSHORE PLANT, IN PARTICULAR AN OFFSHORE WIND TURBINE, WHICH FOUNDATION STRUCTURE IS TO BE INSTALLED AT A LOW NOISE LEVEL, AND INSTALLATION METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

A foundation structure of an offshore plant, such as a wind turbine, comprising at least one foundation element that can be anchored to the seabed without a gravity foundation and without a floating foundation and a support structure fastened thereto for fixing the offshore plant. The foundation element is a pile that can be inserted into the seabed by means of drilling and/or by means of vibratory driving, can be fixed in the seabed by means of an organic and/or inorganic material, and is oriented at an angle from a vertical on the seabed. A method of installing the foundation structure on a seabed includes first anchoring the coupling element by means of piles inserted into the seabed and then connecting the support structure to the coupling element.
