APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR OFFSHORE OCEAN CAGE AQUACULTURE

摘要

A mooring system for a fish cage used for aquaculture includes a first rigid tubular member. An anchor arranged at seabed is coupled to the first rigid tubular member via a mooring chain. The mooring chain defines a moving radius of the floating element. A buoyancy of the fish cage is adjustable by varying the amount of fluid located in the first rigid tubular member. The buoyancy of the fish cage is adjusted to allow the fish cage to automatically submerge in water with increasing wave or current action on water surface within the moving radius of the anchor.
