Movable Chain Jack Mooring Systems
Movable chain jacks that service multiple mooring lines, reducing cost, weight and onboard chain storage compared with fixed chain jacks.
Description
A Bardex movable chain jack travels between mooring lines on a floating production unit, allowing later retensioning and changes to riser touch-down points. It costs and weighs less than multiple fixed chain jacks, reduces onboard chain storage and can be removed for storage on land.
Key features
- Chain always held by fixed stopper latches or traveling crossarm latches, spring-set closed so they cannot open under tension
- Operation can be fully automated
- First delivered in 2002
- Bardex also retrofits other brands of chain jacks or chain hoists
Applications
FPSOs and floating production units; references include Jansz-Io, Scarborough, Ichthys Explorer CPF and CLOV FPSO.
