Environmental factors - wind, waves and currents - determine which materials make up the mooring system. Chain is the most common choice for permanent moorings in shallow water up o 100 m ...

Scientists at the Ocean University of China developed a new methodology to identify optimized mooring models for offshore floating photovoltaic systems deployed in ultra-shallow waters.

The new solution is expected to broaden OSCVs’ functional range to encompass pre-laying of mooring lines in addition to their original suction anchor capabilities. The new system integrates an ...
