The present disclosure relates to a floating unit assembly (10) arranged in a body of water (12) with a seafloor (14). The floating unit assembly (10) comprises: - a plurality of floating units (16, 18, 20, 22, 24), - a plurality of buoys (26, 28, 30, 32, 34), each buoy (26, 28, 30, 32, 34) being connected to the seafloor (14) via one or more taut lines (48), and - a plurality of connection lines (38, 40, 42, 44, 46) by which at least one floating unit (16, 18, 20, 22, 24) is connected to a plurality of buoys (26, 28, 30, 32, 34) and at least one buoy (26, 28, 30, 32, 34) is connected to a plurality of floating units (16, 18, 20, 22, 24). Each connection line (38, 40, 42, 44, 46) connects a buoy connection point (52) of a buoy (26, 28, 30, 32, 34) to a floating unit connection point (54) of a floating unit (16, 18, 20, 22, 24) and each connection line (38, 40, 42, 44, 46) is associated with a nominal horizontal distance (dnom) and a maximum horizontal distance (dmax), wherein: i. the nominal horizontal distance (dnom) is the horizontal distance between the buoy connection point (52) and the floating unit connection point (54) in a condition when no environmental loads are imparted on the floating unit assembly (10), and ii. the maximum horizontal distance (dmax) is the largest horizontal distance that can be obtained between the buoy connection point (52) and the floating unit connection point (54) whilst being connected by the connection line (38, 40, 42, 44, 46). According to the present disclosure, for at least a first connection line (38, 40, 42, 44, 46) of the connection lines (38, 40, 42, 44, 46), the ratio between the maximum horizontal distance (dmax) and the nominal horizontal distance (dnom) is less than 110%, preferably less than 105%, more preferred less than 102%.
