Abstract: An arrangement for mooring, loading and unloading of a vessel, includes a structure connected to the seabed and a Y-formed yoke for connecting the vessel to the structure, the structure including a stationary inner element adapted to be fixedly connected to the sea bed and an outer element having a rotatable fastening to the inner element, the outer element having a connector for fixing the yoke, wherein the yoke is provided with a pitch articulation to fix the first or mutual end of the yoke to the connector of the outer element and a roll articulation positioned between the pitch articulation and the first and second leg to allow the legs to rotate along the longitudinal axis of the yoke with respect to the pitch articulation.

Abstract: A bearing assembly comprises one side exposed to a fluid and the other side to a dry area or compartment(s) which can be emptied. To replace part(s) of the bearing assembly a compartment is located in the compartment(s) through which a section of the bearing is guided. After a part of the bearing section has been moved backwards the compartment can be closed via a valve, then the bearing section can be removed completely from the cavity thus preventing considerable quantities of fluid from entering the compartment(s). This bearing structure can be used in a vessel turret assembly.
