Mooring Design & Dynamic Station-Keeping

Under Active Development

What We Are Building: Near-Future Capabilities

Dynamic Analysis

Time Domain Simulation

Coupled non-linear time-domain simulation capturing instantaneous line tensions, transient wave drift forces, catenary touchdown dynamics, and wind squall response under irregular seas.

Spectral Hydrodynamics

Frequency Domain Analysis

High-throughput spectral motion RAO analysis and first-order wave excitation modeling for rapid screening of floating body motions, natural frequencies, and mean environmental offsets.

Position Control

Dynamic Station-Keeping

Rigorous multi-degree-of-freedom station-keeping simulations for floating docks, barges, and offshore platforms under multi-directional wind, wave, and tidal current spectra.

Class Compliance

API RP 2SK & Global Rules

Built in strict compliance with API RP 2SK (Station-Keeping Systems), OCIMF MEG4, and IACS classification standards with automated intact and single-line broken failure safety checks.

Proven Track Record

Real-World Field Experience in Complex Moorings

Heavy Marine Infrastructure

12-Point Mooring System for Floating Dry Dock

Engineering the complex station-keeping and 12-point catenary spread mooring for heavy-displacement floating dry docks undergoing critical ballasting and deballasting operations. Fully modeled to verify line tensions remain safely below allowable MBL under extreme tidal ranges, 4+ knot crosscurrents, and broken-line redundancy checks.
