Abstract

1,220,651. Mooring ships. ESSO RESEARCH & ENG. CO. 1 April, 1969 [8 May, 1968], No. 16994/69. Heading B7S. An underwater mooring comprises a base 22, a frame 10 rotatably mounted in bearings 20, 21, a swivel joint 26 rotatable with the frame, a conduit 38 for transferring fluid cargo to and from the swivel joint, a water excluding dome 40 secured to the frame and means for introducing into the dome a fluid at a pressure sufficient to exclude water from the region of the bearings and the swivel joint. In the embodiment shown float controlled valve 58 admits a gas such as oxygen or nitrogen through line 54 to keep the seawater at level 60.
