Mooring hardware specification for marine energy converters / prepared By Bill Rawlings and Voytek Klaptocz, Mavi Innovations Inc. : M154-42/2010E-PDF

Increasing focus is being placed on the development of mooring systems for ocean energy converters (OECs) as the technology moves towards commercial readiness. To date, the majority of development for mooring systems focused on applications for the offshore oil and gas industry. The following report examines a number of design standards and guidelines developed for the offshore oil and gas industry in order to compile information that is applicable to the development of mooring systems for OECs. This report is meant to act as a guide for where to find suitable information to aid in the design of a safe and reliable mooring system. Specification for hardware components and some preliminary pricing figures for a mooring system design for a floating tidal turbine are also provided.
