Enhancing Vessel Positioning with the Offshore Mooring Fairleader

Denith Engineering takes pride in delivering high-quality solutions to meet our clients’ unique needs. In 2012, De Beers Marine entrusted us with designing and supplying an 85-ton Offshore Mooring Fairleader for their mining vessel’s mooring system. This Fairleader, meticulously engineered to replace a failed component, seamlessly integrates onto the existing pedestal, ensuring efficient and reliable vessel positioning.

Manufactured in compliance with ABS Class requirements, the Offshore Mooring Fairleader exemplifies our commitment to industry standards and top-notch performance. With a mooring wire rope size of 64mm in diameter and a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 85 tons, this Fairleader withstands demanding offshore conditions.

Design and Functionality of the Offshore Mooring Fairleader

Our skilled engineers developed an innovative design for the azimuth movement, utilizing a custom double-row crossed roller slew bearings. This solution ensures precise and smooth vessel positioning during mooring operations. To enhance stability and reliability, we incorporated two spherical roller bearings to support the sheave.

Throughout the design process, our focus was on minimizing wear and maximizing performance. We carefully counterweighted the sheave and housing to ensure optimal alignment and minimize strain on the rope. Attention to detail extends the service life of the Offshore Mooring Fairleader, providing long-term reliability.

The Offshore Mooring Fairleader has proven its reliability and efficiency in challenging offshore environments. Repeat contracts from De Beers and other esteemed clients reflect the quality and performance of our fairleads.
