Wireless Mooring Line Monitoring

Critical data when it is needed, using the wireless R-tTS (Real-time Tension Sensor)

Typically, once an alarm is received to indicate a problem with chains on a production vessel, it’s too late. The R-tTS (Real-time Tension Sensor) is a unique wireless anchor and hawser PC based system from Monitor Systems Scotland Ltd, using wireless capability from WFS. The real-time nature of the system provides immediate data on mooring chain tensions for all types of production vessels, including FPSO's and can also be used to effectively to monitor load on renewable energy devices such as floating wind turbines and wave riding devices. The system uses hybrid radio/acoustic technology to monitor multiple chains simultaneously and give early indication if safe load parameters are exceeded.
Critical data is provided on: load, tension, inclination, orientation and can be used to effectively monitor mooring lines, anchors and chains in subsea applications. Any change in condition would be communicated to surface operators, enabling swift action if required. Contact us for more information
