In fact, the most worrying thing is the cables. The mooring force of the FPSO mooring has been changing during the entire operation process of berthing the tanker, starting the pump for external transportation, and releasing the cable from the mooring. Once the force of the cable is abnormal, the operation will be interrupted if it is light, and an accident will be caused if it is heavy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8669 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1.jpg\" alt=\"The tension between the lifter and the FPSO\" width=\"750\" height=\"455\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-300x182.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\">The FPSO external transmission tension monitoring device of micro-technology FPSO is specially designed to monitor these cables. The complete set of devices installs the wireless terminal on the lifter, and relies on wireless transmission to send the cable tension and bow direction data to the ship operators in real time. The mooring captain and ship operators can see the dynamics of the cable and the orientation of the FPSO ship at any time. Once the tension or compass data crosses the set safety valve value, the system immediately alarms and records the data, which can be checked afterwards. This set of equipment is also called mooring rope tension monitoring system and cable tension monitoring system.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #1c4b91; margin: 28px 0 12px;\">The old pain points of outbound operations: relying on people to stare, relying on mouth to shout<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\">In the past, for a long time, the tension of the cable relied on manual monitoring. Someone will stay on the deck to watch the pull force, keep an eye on the distance, and then report the real-time data to the captain of the tanker. The captain manipulates the ship and adjusts the distance based on the reported numbers.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8670 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2.jpg\" alt=\"FPSO stern export operation area\" width=\"750\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\">Communication basically depends on walkie-talkies. There is a delay one after another, the sea surges together, and the wind changes. The force on the cable may pass the safe value in an instant. When the news reaches the driver's desk, it is already half a beat slower. The single and backward means of communication has always been the biggest safety hazard in oil extraction operations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\">In view of this pain point, micro-technology has provided CNOOC with a technical solution for tension monitoring of large cables, which has improved the safety and reliability of oil extraction operations.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #1c4b91; margin: 28px 0 12px;\">System composition and working principle<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\">The complete system consists of several parts: tension integrated display unit (316L material, DC24V\/35W, IP66 protection, explosion-proof grade EXDBBT4), detection display unit (DC24V, IP65), data transmitter (RS485, DC24V, IP66, EXDBBT4), data receiving terminal (RS485, AC220V, IP65).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8675 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/7.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshot of the main interface and handheld terminal interface of the large cable pull force\" width=\"750\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/7.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/7-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/7-18x10.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\">The working principle is not complicated. The tension sensor is responsible for measuring the force of the cable, and the compass provides the bow direction of the ship. The two signals are gathered in the main box, and then sent to the handheld terminal on the tanker through the wireless module. When the ship operator stares at the screen, he can see the current tension, rated tension, ratio, bow direction and temperature at the same time, whether the compass communication is normal, whether the tension has exceeded the limit, and the interface is clear.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\">Calibration is also effortless. The system supports weight clearance, weight standard zero, and counterweight calibration. Under normal circumstances, only standard zero and then a counterweight can be calibrated for normal use.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8671 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/3.jpg\" alt=\"Real-time cable tension monitoring system diagram\" width=\"750\" height=\"556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/3.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/3-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wtauserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/3-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #1c4b91; margin: 28px 0 12px;\">On-site landing of offshore platforms<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 2em; margin: 0 0 18px;\">This system is already in actual operation on the offshore platform.
