Mooring load monitoring system

The Straatman Mooring Load Monitoring System (MLMS) is a state-of-the-art system crafted for the ongoing assessment of load on quick release hooks. These hooks are equipped with a specialised load cell that accurately gauges the mooring loads on every individual hook. 

Our software platform amalgamates visualisation of the mooring loads, historical records, and client-defined alarms. Once a vessel is firmly moored to the dolphin, the true load value from each load cell is directly relayed to the monitoring software. This digital interface offers a lucid overview of the load on all lines. If the loads exceed the pre-established maximum thresholds, instant alerts will be issued to the operators, assuring swift response.

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

  • Immediate display(s) on the hook.
  • A high-resolution TFT colour monitor located in the control room.
  • Built-in displays within a dedicated control panel, which can be synced with remote control functionalities. 

Integration with a berthing aid system

The MLMS can also be effortlessly merged with a berthing aid system. This method guarantees that all vital information is supervised, depicted, and stored within a singular system.

Installation of a mooring load monitoring system

Setting up the Mooring Load Monitoring System provides adaptability. It can be merged with new quick release hook units straight from our production site or can be adapted on-site to prevailing systems. Our crew of proficient engineers has developed a system that's both light and straightforward to move. This advancement does away with the typically work-intensive and weather-reliant need for cranes during on-site load monitoring installations. Such a refined method not only conserves time but also bolsters the efficacy of the installation process.
