| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a floating coastal structure used in water transportation terminals for production flowage of the petroleum industry. The structure exhibits a constructive configuration comprised of multiple monobuoys interconnected in an arrangement and in a specific dimensional relationship, being capable of reducing the instability and movements generated by the hydrodynamic effect of waves, thereby reducing the stresses of the accessory components, such as mooring lines, oil transfer lines and discharge hoses, connected to it. |

1. A multi-column bouy for transportation terminals in deep and ultra-deep waters, comprising:
a set of at least three monobuoys (10), with a typical configuration, predominantly cylindrical, arranged equidistantly from a center (20) common to them and interconnected by an upper lattice structure (30) comprising as many center beams (31) as the number of monobuoys (10) used, wherein each center beam (31) connects the center (20) of said lattice structure to the point of attachment of the respective monobuoy (10); at least three peripheral beams (32) interconnecting the free ends of the center beams (31) so as to close the lattice structure (30), which is laid out on the monobuoys (10), where each of the monobuoys is attached to the free end of its corresponding center beam (31); a swivel joint is provided in the center (20) of the lattice structure (30), where the oil transfer line is connected. |
