Mooring load monitoring system 

The Straatman Mooring Load Monitoring System (MLMS) is an advanced system crafted for the continuous measurement of load on quick release hooks. These hooks come equipped with a particular load cell that precisely gauges the mooring loads on each separate hook 

Our software platform brings together the visualisation of mooring loads, historical records, and alarms set by the client. When a vessel is firmly anchored to the dolphin, the genuine load value from each load cell is straight away sent to the monitoring software. This digital dashboard offers a transparent insight into the load on each line. If these loads go beyond the set maximum limits, instant alerts will be dispatched to the operators, ensuring timely intervention.

The mooring loads and alarms can be viewed and recorded in various ways:

  • Direct display(s) on the hook. 
  • A high-resolution TFT colour monitor positioned in the control room. 
  • Displays built into a dedicated control panel, adaptable for remote control functionalities. 

Integration with a berthing aid system

The MLMS can also be smoothly integrated with a berthing aid system, ensuring that all relevant information is observed, depicted, and stored in a single system.

Installation of a mooring load monitoring system

Setting up the Mooring Load Monitoring System is versatile. It can be incorporated with new quick release hook units right at our production centre or added onto existing systems on-site. Our squad of expert engineers has designed a system that's not only lightweight but also straightforward to transport. This design bypasses the traditional time-intensive and weather-sensitive need for cranes when setting up load monitoring systems on-site. Such an efficient strategy not only conserves time but also boosts the overall effectiveness of the setup process.
