Claim:
1. A method for anchoring a foundation structure in a seabed, comprising: introducing at least one receiving structure into the seabed, lowering at least one support post of the foundation structure into the at least one receiving structure, producing a connection between the receiving structure and foundation structure by filling the receiving structure with a curable filling compound, and curing the curable filling compound, wherein the at least one support post is fixed in the receiving structure via a fixing operation prior to filling the receiving structure with the curable filling compound; wherein the fixing operation is achieved by means of fixing elements arranged on the support post; and wherein the fixing elements arranged on the support post are metal sheets positioned obliquely relative to a longitudinal axis of the support post, and wherein the metal sheets are deflectable relative to the support post without permanent deformation via elastic deformation of the metal sheets or via pre-stressed movable fastenings.
