A b s t r a c t A method for installation of a floatable or buoyant body on the sea bottom. The buoyant body is designed to be towed to the installation site in sea surface position for subsequent complete submersion down towards the sea bottom by supplying ballast to the buoyant body. The supply of ballast water is being discontinued when the buoyant body (1) reaches a pre-selected sinking velocity and the vertical movement of the buoyant body is discontinued at a pre-selected level above the sea bottom by means of a floating vessel or the like (7) which is floating at the sea surface, and one end of the vessel is connected to the buoyant body by means of a connector system the length of which is smaller than the sea depth on the installation sited. The buoyant body is displaced laterally to a pre-selected final location, whereafter the buoyant body is further submerged down towards the sea bottom until the same is positioned on the sea bottom in a pre-selected position.
