FOUNDATION STRUCTURE, WHICH CAN BE INSTALLED WITH A LOW LEVEL OF NOISE, FOR AN OFFSHORE PLANT, IN PARTICULAR AN OFFSHORE WIND ENERGY PLANT, AND ASSEMBLY METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

The invention relates to a foundation structure (1) of an offshore plant, in particular an offshore 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 (2) fastened thereto for fixing the offshore plant. According to the invention, in order to achieve a high level of environmental compatibility of the foundation structure (1) during the installation and a simple and economical installation, the foundation element is a pile (5) 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. The invention further relates to a method for installing said foundation structure (1) on a seabed (4), wherein first the coupling element (3) is anchored by means of piles (5) inserted into the seabed (4) and then the support structure (2) is connected to the coupling element (3).
