Abstract

The invention relates to a buoyant marine platform for positioning in a deep water offshore location. The platform includes buoyancy control means whereby to regulate the attitude of the unit at the water's surface as well as when submerged. The platform lower end is provided with an anchoring member adapted to seat, and be partially imbedded into a sloping or contoured ocean floor. Said anchor member comprises separate, yet cooperating components which permit adjustment of the anchor's disposition while at the ocean floor, to operably engage and fixedly position the buoyant platform.
