Abstract

A floating structure is floatable in a body of liquid and stabilized with respect to at least one of roll and pitch. Such a structure includes: a hull including compartments, each compartment being open at the bottom thereof relative to a horizontal plane, and being adapted to accommodate ingress by the body of liquid; a negative pressure source to negatively pressure a volume above a level of the liquid in at least one of the compartments; and one or more arrangements by which at least one or more other of the compartments can be made to exhibit a positive buoyancy.
