The invention relates to a floating platform (1) comprising at least three floating or semi-submersible peripheral units (2; 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) arranged connected to a floating or semi-submersible central unit (3) by at least one in a substantially radial direction arranged rigid and elongated radial connection member (5). The floating or semi-submersible peripheral units (2; 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) are connected to the adjacent peripheral units (2; 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) by a coupling arrangement (6) which is an elongated object variable in length arranged to allow each floating peripheral unit (2; 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) to move in relation to the adjacent peripheral unit (2; 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) at least in a direction substantially parallel to the elongation direction of the coupling arrangement (6). One embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the length of at least one of the coupling arrangements (6) is arranged to be adjusted by a length adjusting arrangement (15) adapted to shorten the coupling arrangement (6) and to pull two adjacent floating peripheral units (2; 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) towards each other. The invention also relates to an energy producing plant comprising such a floating platform.
