Abstract
The present invention relates to a semi-submersible offshore structure. More particularly, the invention relates to a low motion semi-submersible offshore structure that has improved stability in deep water. The low motion semi-submersible experiences relatively lesser heave, pitch and wave motions compared to conventional semi-submersibles when the semi-submersible is operating in harsh offshore environments.
