Subsequently, a mooring system was designed, thereby, for the proposed case study, a global numerical analysis of the system was performed, using the OrcaFlex software, imposing the environmental loads. Finally, the results in terms of the platform motions, mooring lines...

... to achieve satisfactory creep behavior and enable offshore mooring systems made entirely of HMPE. Such advancements could lead to the use of HMPE in offshore installations in ultra-deep waters, given its low elongation. The goal of this study is to evaluate the creep behavior of 6 HMPE fibers, including both...

..., in this case the winch is rotary and can operate via electric or hydraulic power. One of the main considerations is to move the windlass and keep the mooring lines intact without cutting them. Introduction The primary purpose of an offshore mooring system is to maintain a floating unit on station within...

... for monitoring mooring systems is to measure mooring line angle (using accelerometer based inclinometers), and use this measurement to infer theoretical mooring line tension. Whilst these systems are effective at alerting operators to a line failure, the fact that tension must be inferred requires a certain...

... concept is based on lifting the FPSO out of the water by submerging the " Dockwise Vanguard" underneath the FPSO offshore without disconnecting it from its mooring system and leaving the flow lines connected. Subsequently, by raising the vessel, and thus lifting the FPSO out of the water, a stable working...
