external turrets & moorings

You can read much more about our Smart Mooring System here, but essentially, Sigma has developed a simple, yet innovative, FPSO/FSO Mooring and Fluid Transfer Solution that can be used by major operators, contractors and independent producers worldwide, the SMS is an evolution of our earlier proven mooring and fluid transfer systems.

The advantages of our patented technology include unlimited weathervaning, with time and cost savings over existing technologies.

This system can be permanently on station or disconnectable, leaving a robust floating canister supporting the risers and mooring.

In addition we can provide more traditional mooring and riser systems such as spread moored systems.
