ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A seal for an articulated joint connecting a long leg of a drilling or production platform to the associated spud tank, whereby even though the seal according to the invention is subjected to wear it will reliably prevent ingress of sea water, over a very long period of time. The seal according to the invention also prevents ingress of sea water transport of a platform, during setting up of the platform, and of course during operation of the platform standing in a sea bed. The water pressure encountered at relatively great depths is utilized to compensate for wear in the seals, and the sealing means automatically eliminate any accumulation of sand or the like at bearing points.
