Mooring and installation buoyancy

Model In-line mooring buoys; mooring buoys; tri-buoys

Surface and subsurface buoys, including in-line mooring buoys, mooring buoys and tri-buoys, for installation and permanent moorings in oil and gas and floating wind.

Description

Balmoral supplies surface and subsurface buoys for conventional energy and floating offshore wind projects, for temporary installation work and permanent moorings of up to 25 years. The solutions are qualified to depths of 7000m and can be supplied with antifouling coatings; shallow-water systems can use recyclable materials.

Key features

  • In-line mooring buoys: a proprietary connection system built into the central steelwork passes all mooring loads through the centre of gravity; the buoyancy structure has no wearing parts, improving fatigue resistance
  • Mooring buoys: cylindrical and rectangular sections; specials can add platforms, ladders, solar panels, monitoring and lighting
  • Tri-buoys: extra buoyancy for installation operations or small permanent moorings

Applications

Mooring of floating production and floating offshore wind units, and offshore installation operations.
