Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method for detecting water in a tensioning buoy of a riser column of an installation located in an aquatic environment, the method including, in succession, steps of: defining a representative standard echo; emitting the ultrasonic signal on a wall of the buoy; measuring a representative response echo due to the reflection of the ultrasonic signal in the buoy; comparing the representative response echo to the representative standard echo; and determining whether water is present in or absent from the buoy from the comparison.
