350T Mooring Hook for FSO Nigeria
1 December 2025
A new project completed at our factory: a red-painted 350-ton Quick Release Mooring Hook, ready for shipment to a respected offshore client in Nigeria. The unit will be installed on a Floating Storage and Offloading unit (FSO) and used during tandem offloading operations, where oil is transferred from the FSO to a shuttle tanker.
Engineered for performance and safety
This heavy-duty hook is designed for challenging offshore conditions and includes two key safety systems:
- A Mooring Load Monitoring System for continuous insight into mooring line tension.
- A Remote Release System for safe and controlled hook release from a distance.
The red coating ensures high visibility and enhances safety during operation and inspection.
Delivery and deployment
The system is now fully assembled, tested, and prepared for transport. Once on-site, it will be installed and commissioned for use in daily offshore operations.
At Straatman, we specialise in reliable and innovative mooring equipment. This delivery confirms our commitment to providing robust and smart solutions for offshore mooring applications, including FSOs, terminals, and buoy systems.
