Abstract:
A conductor assembly comprising a conductor of an offshore platform and a guide surrounding the conductor. The guide extending from an upper end to a lower end and having a main portion therebetween, a stabilising body defining a bore extending therethrough, the conductor extending through the bore of the stabilising body, the stabilising body provided between the conductor and the guide optionally the stabilising body comprising an inner body and an outer body. In this way, the conductor is allowed to move vertically within the guide with the only moving surfaces in contact being an outer surface of the inner body and the inner surface of the outer body, thus mitigating or eliminating abrasion of the conductor and/or guide.
