Claim 10:
11. The device according to claim 2, A device for the transfer of cryogenic product from a first floating structure for storing cryogenic product to a second fixed or floating structure for storing cryogenic product, the device comprising:
a plurality of rigid pipes configured to transport the cryogenic product between a first duct linked to the first structure and a second duct linked to the second structure,
buoyancy means for carrying the pipes; and
connection means for fluidically connecting the pipes in pairs, said connection means being suitable for transporting the cryogenic product and allowing at least one degree of freedom between each pair of pipes,
wherein said buoyancy means comprises a plurality of floats linked or articulated to each other by mechanical linking means, or a plurality of buoys provided with means for anchorage to the bed of an expanse of water,
wherein the connection means is configured to enable a rotation of the pipes through 180° around a substantially vertical rotational axis so as to be able to dispose the pipes and the buoyancy means parallel to each other.
