Welaptega Marine, world leader in mooring integrity verification, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a contract to inspect the mooring systems on the Anasuria floating, production, storage and offloading vessel (FPSO) in the UK North Sea.

Welaptega’s specialised team of offshore engineers will deploy its advanced toolset of 3D video, 3D modeling and chain measurement system (CMS).

The two-phase mobilisation is part of Shell’s long-term mooring integrity verification program on the vessel.

Phase I will inspect the mooring chains from the FPSO with an inspection class ROV, while phase two of the programme will be conducted from an inspection-vessel with a working class ROV.

Anasuria is the first purpose-built floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel to be constructed for Shell UK Exploration and Production (Shell Expro) in the UK North Sea.
