Wind and current mooring loads on a moored tanker

Ask Deckhand to work out wind and current mooring loads on a moored tanker using the OCIMF load coefficients.

What you can ask it to do

  • Compute wind and current load on a moored tanker from the OCIMF coefficients.
  • Resolve longitudinal, lateral and yaw load components for a heading and environment.
  • Feed the loads into a mooring or berthing check.
