Abstract:
The present invention relates to a floating coastal structure used in water transportation terminals for production flowage of the petroleum industry. The structure exhibits a constructive configuration comprised of multiple monobuoys interconnected in an arrangement and in a specific dimensional relationship, being capable of reducing the instability and movements generated by the hydrodynamic effect of waves, thereby reducing the stresses of the accessory components, such as mooring lines, oil transfer lines and discharge hoses, connected to it.
