A load handling system for offshore load transfer operations, using a floater equipped with a supporting structure for transfer of heavy construction elements between the floater and a transfer site. The supporting structure includes an elongated transfer beam incorporating an arm structure projecting from the floater or a structure attached thereto, and a load carrying point, carried by the arm structure. The load carrying point is displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the arm structure. The arm structure is rotatably supported relative to the floater or a structure attached thereto, in a manner allowing it to be swung in a substantially horizontal plane about a substantially vertical shaft. The arm structure is supported in a manner permitting tilting movements about substantially horizontal axes. |
