Offshore Barrel Mooring Buoy: Robust Design for Demanding Environments

The commercial barrel mooring buoy is a representative offshore solution featuring a barrel-shaped design with integrated chain-through and modular handling crucifix components. Its core structure consists of vertically aligned steelwork passing through the buoy’s center, ensuring structural integrity.

Key Features:

  1. Material Composition:
  • Core: Resilient closed-cell polyethylene/EVA foam surrounds the central steelwork, providing self-fendering and unsinkable properties even if damaged.
  • Outer Layer: A durable polyurethane (PU) elastomer skin offers resistance to abrasion, UV degradation, and marine corrosion.
  1. Enhanced Durability:
    For extreme conditions, the PU skin can be reinforced with nylon protective coating, significantly improving tear strength and extending service life with minimal maintenance.

Advantages:

  • Modular design simplifies installation and handling.
  • Combines buoyancy resilience with high mechanical strength.
  • Ideal for harsh offshore environments due to corrosion-resistant materials.
