A B S T R A C T SUCTION ANCHOR AND METHOD OF INSTALLING A SUCTION ANCHOR A problem which sometimes occurs is that the plug of bottom material which enters the interior of a suction anchor during installation of the anchor may disturb the pumping process, since the reduced pressure may cause expansion of the plug, the result being that the anchor does not reach the desired depth in the water bottom. According to the invention this problem is solved by removing at least the upper part of the plug from the interior by introducing water into the interior, forming a mixture of bottom particles and water and removing the mixture formed from the interior. The invention relates as well to a suction anchor suitable for carrying out the method according to the invention.
