A tendon installation for anchoring a semisubmersible platform to a sea bed foundation, wherein said tendons are tensioned by the updrift of the platform. The tendons are prefabricated in dimensions adpated to the depth of the sea bed foundation, expected tension load and in order to be substantially weightless in water. The tendons are connected in groups at each of their ends at a distance corresponding to the distance between anchoring points in the foundation and the platform respectively. The groups of tendons are towed out to the anchoring site and they are positioned vertically above the foundation. The tendons are fastened to the anchoring points in the foundation. The platform is positioned above the groups of tendons and connected to these via wire ropes. The platform is ballasted down onto the tendons under guidance by said wire ropes. The upper ends of the tendons are mounted internally in the legs of the platform. There is only one elastic load bearing connection means between the platform and each tendon, said connection means being remotely adjustable.
