Mooring Forces Analysis for Large LNG Terminal

The safety problem of mooring operation for a large special LNG terminal especially the analysis on mooring force of LNG vessel under the conditions of wind,wave and current attract more attentions from sides of wharf construction and management.Combining a practical example,the OPTIMOOR,a famous software of morring analysis has been used to calculate the wind load,current force vessel motions caused by wave.The mooring forecs has been analysised for moored ship under the environmental condition such as wind,wave and current.The influence of different berth length on mooring forecs has been compared.
