Abstract
A device is for guiding and vertically maintaining a tubular monopile when it is placed in an excavation made in a seabed, filled with compacted granular materials and consolidated by a metal reinforcement tube. The device includes a support structure mounted on four feet, each adjustable in height, a frame for positioning the support structure relative to the reinforcement tube having a closed U shape, and a cage mounted inside the support structure above the positioning frame to receive the monopile. The cage has a closed low portion and a high portion provided with a door to allow lateral introduction of the monopile into the cage.
