A coupling assembly for coupling a first gas conduit (1) and a second gas conduit(2) for conveying a pressurized gas stream between a floating structure and another structure, comprising -a coupling device (3) arranged for coupling the first gas conduit (1) and the second gas conduit(2), wherein gas present in the gas connection has a gas pressure, -a gas actuator (4) comprising an engagement member (41), wherein the engagement member (41) is moveable between a first and second position, wherein the first position is associated with the closed state of the coupling device (3) and the second position is associated with the open state of the coupling device (3). The gas actuator (4) is or can be brought in gas communication with the gas connection and the gas pressure forces the engagement member (41) to the first position.
