HIGH QUALITY
MATERIALS
(OCIMF 2000)
We only use the best quality yarns of multifilament nylon,
HT polyester and blended fibres to manufacture our
mooring hawsers. These hawsers can be supplied with
an inherent buoyancy flotation system and/or total PU
encapsulation for increased durability and operational
cost savings.
Our Circular Braid and Double Braid mooring hawsers
are manufactured and supplied in strict accordance with
the OCIMF 2000 Guidelines for the Purchasing & Testing
of SPM Hawsers, following an exhaustive documented
prototype testing fully witnessed and certified by Class.
Work in
partnership
In addition to working very closely with customers,
Survitec Group has established exclusive partnerships
with major manufacturers. Survitec Group is responsible
for marketing and supplying these high quality products
to the offshore market. Together, we provide unparalleled
product development, technical support and distribution
for offshore mooring systems worldwide.
Worldwide
support
Survitec Group continues to develop a global site/
office network worldwide in addition to a dedicated
global network of agents/representatives.
Customer care
and technical support
Our rope sales and engineering team is always on
hand to provide a comprehensive customer care
and technical support service. This may involve

Mooring Flotation
Survitec Group supply a number
of hawser flotation methods:
Lace-on Float
Survitec Group lace-on floats are manufactured
from a heavy duty polyamide fabric with expanded
polyethylene closed cell foam strips. Floats are
workable between temperatures -30C and +65C
and offer good resistance against oil and chemicals.
Each float has brass eyelets and available in either
1.06mtrs or 2.06mtrs lengths. The width will depend
upon the rope size. The float is orange colour on the
outside, and white colour on the inside.
Chafe Chains
(Please note: Chafe chains can be supplied
configured to a customers own specification)
Chafe Chain A OCIMF 1993 - for use with full
range of ship sizes
Chafe Chain B OCIMF 1993 - for use with ships
of 350,000 tonnes or less deadweight

RESIDUAL HAWSER
STRENGTH TESTING
Survitec Group can help operators to understand the
hawser behaviour and performance in specific field
operations by residual strength testing of used/retired
mooring hawsers.
Our high tech laboratory has the capability to analyse
mooring hawsers for condition, signs of internal abrasion
damage or ingress of foreign particles, and perform
a residual break test. All this information will help
operators understand the hawsers in use at their terminal
better and make informed judgements on current and
future retirement programmes. Survitec Group engineers
are able to offer advice and guidance on this.
EQUIPMENT
SELECTION
Calm Buoy/FPSO Side
1
Mooring Hawsers
Chafe Chains
Each mooring hawser should terminate at its
shipboard end with a chafe chain. The standard
recommended size of the chafe chain has been
established at 76mm base on the diameter of the
material forming the common stud links.
Terminal operators should select the appropriate
chain by taking into account the designed SPM
mooring arrangement, SWL required and the
properties of the chain grade selected. Typically chafe
chains form a single chain of approximately 8 metres
or more in length, composed of 76mm stud link
chain. If through-type chain support buoys are utilised
the length of the chain may have to be increased.
Each chain should terminate at the shipboard end
with an oblong plate for connecting the chain to the
pick-up rope bow shackle.

Support Buoys
When the berth is unoccupied, each chafe chain may
be supported by flotation devices. One method is to use
a swivel-ended type support buoy that is connected by
a short length of chain to the end link of the chafe chain,
adjacent to the hawser. Another method is to use a
through-type chain support buoy. Support buoys should
have reserve buoyancy equivalent to at least 20% of the
weight in air of the material to be supported.
