BOLTED JOINT OF AN OFFSHORE STRUCTURE
The invention refers to a bolted joint of an offshore structure comprising first and second connecting elements, the first connecting element forming part of an offshore tower or an offshore platform and the second connecting element forming part of a foundation structure, the first connecting element comprising a first flange (8) and the second connecting element comprising a second flange (9), the first and second flanges (8, 9) comprising through holes (10), the first and second flanges 8, 9 abutting each other with the through holes (10) in alignment and being secured to each other by means of fastening elements extending into the through holes (10), one of the first and second connecting elements comprising an outer peripheral skirt (15) covering a butt joint (16) between the first and second flanges (8,9) and defining an outer annular space (18) surrounding the butt joint (16), the annular space (18) sealed against the ingress of water by a sealing element. One of the first and second connecting elements comprises a peripheral collar, the skirt (15) and the collar confining the annular space (18), the sealing element being a compressible sealing element sandwiched between the skirt (14) and the collar (15).
