A buoy for use in loading or unloading of a flowable medium, espe- cially oil, the buoy (2) at its lower end being arranged for connection to a t least one transfer line (6) and further being arranged to be introduced into a submerged downwardly open receiving space in a floating vessel (I), and the buoy (2) in operation forming a transfer connexion between the transfer line (6) and a tube system (41) on the vessel. The buoy (2) com- prises an outer buoyancy member (30) arranged for releasable locking to the receiving space (3) of the vessel (I) by means of a locking mechanism (56, 57) arranged therein, and centrally in the outer member (30) a rotat- ably mounted member (31) which forms a passage (32) for medium and at its ends is arranged for connexion to the transfer line (61 and the tube sys - tem (41) on the vessel (1), respectively. The buoy (2) at its upper end is connected to a means for hoisting and introducing the buoy into the re- ceiving space (3) of the vessel (1).
