"IMPRESSED CURRENT CATHODIC PROTECTION OF OFF-SHOREPLATFORMS UTILIZING THE TENSIONED ANODE ROPES SYSTEM"ABSTRACTThe present invention concerns a system for cathodicprotection of off-shore structures, by the impressedcurrent method, which system comprises tubular anodeassemblies (1, 1'), coaxially applied onto power supplycables (4), supported by ropes (5) tensioned betweenanchoring bodies (15) and the structure to be protected(17) or directly supported by the structure to be protect-ed. The tubular anodes, the relevant hydraulic sealingsand electrical connections and the power supply cables (4)are not subjected to the mechanical stresses affecting thesupport.
