  • Other offshore mooring applications requiring quick and reliable release

By choosing our quick release offshore hooks, you ensure safety, efficiency, and reliability for your offshore mooring operations.

Quick Release Offshore Hooks for FPSO Operations

Based on our standard quick release mooring hooks, we have developed a special quick release offshore hook for FPSOs, designed for tandem mooring and offloading operations.

The Straatman FPSO quick release hook is typically a single fixed hook configuration, integrated with a bracket or foundation for mounting on a deck surface. Installation can be done by welding or bolting.

The most common safe working load (SWL) for FPSO hooks is 250 or 300 tons, but we can design and manufacture quick release hooks for higher capacities upon request.

Quick Release Hook on FSRU

Quick Release Offshore Hooks for FSRU Operations

Quick release mooring hooks for FSRUs are typically installed on the deck of an FSRU. Our quick release hooks ensure safe side-by-side mooring with other vessels or terminals.

To simplify installation, our FSRU quick release offshore hooks are often supplied with a counter plate or foundation, which can be welded onto the deck surface before the final installation of the hook unit.

Quick Release Offshore Hooks for FPSO & FSRU Operations

Our quick release mooring hooks are specially designed for safe and efficient offshore mooring in FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) and FSRU (Floating Storage Regasification Unit) operations. These hooks ensure secure mooring while allowing for quick and easy release when needed.

Key Features of Our Quick Release Hooks

  • Strong & Durable Design: Our quick release offshore hooks are built to handle high loads, with a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 250 to 300 tons. On request, we can design hooks for even higher capacities.

  • Easy Installation: The hooks are installed on the deck surface of an FPSO or FSRU using a custom foundation with a bracket or base plate, which can be welded or bolted into place.

  • Mooring Load Monitoring System: Our hooks can be equipped with load monitoring sensors, displaying real-time mooring force data. If the load exceeds a preset limit, visual and audible alarms will activate. Monitoring panels and cabinets can be installed in the control room for easy access to mooring data.

  • Certified for Hazardous Environments: All components of our quick release offshore hooks are ATEX or IECEx certified to meet the strict safety requirements for hazardous offshore environments.

  • Safety Features: The hooks have built-in safety mechanisms to prevent accidental or unintended release, ensuring secure mooring under all conditions.

  • Multiple Release Options: To suit different operational needs, our hooks can be operated in various ways:

    • Manual release using a lever
    • Remote release from the control room
    • Hydraulic release via a local control panel
