Estimating the term…
A foundation structure of an offshore plant, such as a wind turbine, comprising at least one foundation element that can be anchored to the seabed without a gravity foundation and without a floating foundation and a support structure fastened thereto for fixing the offshore plant. The foundation element is a pile that can be inserted into the seabed by means of drilling and/or by means of vibratory driving, can be fixed in the seabed by means of an organic and/or inorganic material, and is oriented at an angle from a vertical on the seabed. A method of installing the foundation structure on a seabed includes first anchoring the coupling element by means of piles inserted into the seabed and then connecting the support structure to the coupling element.
Foundation structure for an offshore plant having at least one foundation element which can be anchored to the sea floor, precluding a gravity foundation and precluding a floating foundation, and a support structure which is attached thereto to fix the offshore plant, wherein the foundation element is formed as a pile which can be inserted into the sea floor by being bored and/or vibrated in, which can be fixed in the sea floor with an organic and/or inorganic material and which is arranged at an angle to a vertical on the sea floor.
