An apparatus for anchoring of a vessel and transfer of a liquid load, such as oil, between an installation and tanks on the vessel (1), comprising a load-transferring device (5) which is rotatably mounted in a vertical shaft (3) extending from the bottom of the vessel (1) up to a space (4) in the vessel hull, the device at its lower end being connected to anchoring lines (14) for bottom anchoring of the vessel. The device consists of an essentially circularly cylindrical unit (5) which is permanently installed in the shaft (3) and constitutes or receives at least one load-transferring pipe (10), the lower end of the unit (5) being situated at a level with the bottom (11) of the vessel (1) and being provided with a connecting means (12) for interconnection between the at least one load-transferring pipe (10) and respective risers (6) from the installation, and the unit (5) at its upper end being provided with a connecting means (15) for connection of the at least one pipe (10) with the tanks of the vessel. |
