ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A rotating fluid transfer system for offshore oil fields is disclosed. The system uses flexible pipe and allows at least five or six rotations before the system reaches its limit. It uses flexible pipe in a vertical column arranged around a central rigid pipe which acts as a bend restrictor. The bottom of the pipes are attached to the mooring device and the top of the pipes are attached to a tower that stands on the vessel deck. As the vessel rotates around the mooring device the flexible pipes are twisted around the central rigid pipe forming a helix. An axial swivel is provided in each flexible pipe to relieve torsion in the flexible pipe.
