Fendercare Marine – Bespoke Chain Stoppers
Fendercare Marine’s capabilities to supply unique, bespoke designed anchoring equipment are being fully utilised, as part of a clean energy generation project for developing nations.
Working in partnership with KARMOL – a joint venture between innovative Turkish company, Karandeniz Holdings, and Tokyo-based MOL – Fendercare is supplying the FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit) ships with multiple unique, bespoke-designed hydraulic chain stoppers for anchoring the vessels in place for the life of the projects.
KARMOL’s projects are unique in that they deliver power to developing nations, quickly and efficiently, converting the energy from LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) to electricity. Fendercare has already successfully supplied bespoke chain stoppers to two ‘Gas to Power Ships’, which will be operating in waters offshore Senegal and Mozambique later this year supplying part of those countries’ energy needs.
Maintaining the position of the KARMOL Vessel is extremely important during operations, making the bespoke designed chain stoppers vital to help locate the ship for the duration of the power generation period. Fendercare supplies complete shipsets for LNG projects, helping its customers provide flexible, sustainable and economically attractive power to Africa and South East Asia.
