Permanent Mooring Method and Arrangement Abstract A permanent mooring method and arrangement for embedding a permanent mooring device in the sea bottom calls for the lowering of the permanent mooring device (10) into the sea until the bottom end (12) contacts the sea bottom, the transmission of fluid under high pressure via a hollow tubular body (16) of the permanent mooring device (10) to nozzle portion (12, 18) thereof so as to create a fluidized area in the sea bottom around the permanent mooring device (10) and to wash the permanent mooring device (10) into and beneath the sea bottom, followed by transmission of a cementitious substance via the hollow tubular body (16) to the nozzle portion (12, 18) so as to fill the fluidized area in the sea bottom with the cementitious substance. The permanent mooring device (10) is vibrated during trans- mission of the high-pressure fluid, transmission of the cementitious substance, or consolidation of the cementitious substance, or during any combination thereof. Other features include releasable flukes (22, 140, 144), fluke re- straints (142, 146), primary and secondary nozzles (130, 132), valve (118) for control- ling the flow of high-pressure fluid and/or cementitious substance, a quick-release arrange- ment ( 16, 38) between pipe extensions, and a shackle (154) and shackle bar (150) arrange- ment which is less susceptible to corrosion.
