An assembly for transferring fluids between a vessel and a turret structure (2) mounted in said vessel for a rotation around a substantially vertical turret axis (3) is provided. Said turret structure comprises a swivel (4) having at least one fluid path which is connected with one end of a fluid piping of which the second end is connected to the vessel. The assembly further comprises a swivel tower (12) mounted around the swivel and engaging the remainder of the turret structure by means of a swivel tower bearing for a relative rotation with respect to said remainder of the turret structure around the turret axis. The swivel tower by means of a torsion lock mechanism (14) is substantially locked to the vessel for a rotation therewith. The fluid piping comprises a first fluid piping segment extending freely between the vessel and the swivel tower and a second fluid piping segment extending between the swivel tower and the fluid path of the swivel. The first and second fluid piping segments are joined at an interconnection where the fluid piping is substantially fixed to the swivel tower by fixing means.
