ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A shock absorbing system for protecting the legs of an offshore platform against excessive shock is disclosed. The system has a vertical support column which is supported from its upper and lower ends. A cylindrical protector is eccentri- cally positioned around the support column and provides a contact surface for vessels. At least two rubber shock absorbing elements are designed to fit in the annular space formed between the column and the outer protector. These shock absorbing members are positioned in axially spaced locations within the annular space. These shock absorbing elements have their interior surfaces bonded to the interior vertical column. The present system has eliminated many aspects of the prior art systems by taking into account the limited directions from which contact forces are applied.
