For an offshore installation project in India, an eight-point mooring system is required for Jumbo Maritime’s J-type vessel Jumbo Javelin. A temporary mooring spread has been developed for the campaign to help the vessel challenge high current conditions during installation.
Fusie Engineers carried out detailed structural analysis and verification for the temporary mooring spread installation, covering aft, midship, and forward mooring arrangements.
The engineering scope includes integration of high-capacity winches, fairleads, sheave foundations, and supporting grillages. Global and local structural verification is conducted under intact, damage, and accidental load cases. The work also assesses load paths, eccentricities, welds, bolted connections, and fabrication tolerances, and includes compliance checks against applicable DNV and Eurocode requirements.
The engineering focuses on integrating additional heavy mooring equipment into an existing vessel structure while maintaining safety, reliability, and operability during offshore installation operations. The engineering design works executed by Fusie Engineers have received Lloyd’s Register approvals.
