Mooring Chain for Deepwater Floating Offshore Wind Platforms

CSAC manufactures high-strength mooring chains for deepwater floating offshore wind platforms, floating wind turbines and offshore renewable energy projects.

Floating offshore wind platforms operate in demanding marine environments where mooring systems must withstand continuous wind, wave and current loads throughout the design life of the project.

Our mooring chains can be manufactured according to project-specific requirements, including chain grade, diameter, length, accessories, testing and classification certification.
