Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2317012A1] The invention relates to an off-shore construction for harboring vessels and the like. The construction comprises a seawall, shaped such that it partly encloses an inner mass of water for receiving at least one seaworthy vessel, and substantially prevents the inflow of an outer mass of seawater, except for an entrance in connection with the sea. The construction preferably comprises an inner wall extending substantially within the perimeter of the seawall and shaped such that it partly encloses a part of the inner mass of water, except for an inlet in connection with the entrance. The construction is favorably used for the salvage of vessels in distress, in particular oil containing vessels, and for treating oil to reduce its harm for the environment. Another use includes the temporary storage of people and means for a windmill park.
