Quel que soit le système de stockage en mer, il faut prévoir un ou plusieurs postes de chargement. De façon classique on utilise des bouées flottantes, ancrées sur le fond et qui servent d'amarrage unique aux pétroliers qui viennent charger; une telle bouée équipée pour recevoir des pétroliers de 240 000 tonnes, pèse environ 200 tonnes. Un flexible flottant relie la bouée à la plateforme de production. Il est de gros diamètre (30 à 40 pouces soit 75 à 100 centimètres) afin de permettre d'importants débits de chargement qui réduisent d'autant le temps d'immobilisation des navires. 1, record 1, French, - amarrage%20unique
