PASSIVE STABILIZER FOR FLOATING PETROLEUM-PRODUCTION SYSTEMS

摘要

The present invention relates to a passive stabilizer (3) which is installed in the lower part of a tanker used in floating production systems which make use of a mechanism which enables the tanker (1) to rotate about a vertical axis (turret). The stabilizer gives the tanker greater directional stability and makes it possible to install the turret in a more central position along the tanker.
