Mentioned below are ten points that must be considered while handing mooring
operation on ships:
1. Dont Allow Any Extra Crew Member on the Deck: Ensure that no extra personnel
are present at the mooring station except those who are involved in the operation.
Anyone who is not assisting in the mooring operation must be asked to leave the
mooring station for his/her and others safety.
2. Consider Weather Condition: Before planning the mooring operation, consider the
weather condition by taking factors such as wind and current. The ships master and
responsible officer must have the details of current and future weather data before
commencing the mooring operation.
3. Have knowledge of Snap Back Zone and Rope Bight: All personnel involved with
the mooring operation should be aware of the snap back zones and rope bight. Click
here to know more about this.
4. Check All the Mooring Equipment: Check all the equipment (mooring winch, drums,
windlass etc.) involved in the mooring operation for any kind of problem. Proper routine
maintenance is the key to ensure smooth running of mooring equipment and
systems. Dont forget to check the load sensors of mooring winches.
5. Check the Tail of Mooring Line: If the mooring wire line is provided with tail (short
lengths of synthetic fiber rope which are placed in series with the vessels winchmounted wires to decrease mooring line stiffness and thus to reduce peak line loads and
fatigue due to vessel motions) ensure same size and material of tails are used for all
lines in the same service (breast, spring and head lines). Different tail size and material
would lead to uneven load in the mooring line.
6. Tend One Line at a Time: Only one line should be tended at a time during mooring
operation. If this is not done, it may increase the load in the other tended lines. If two
lines are tended together it may lead to overloading and breakage. Follow the orders of
the master or responsible ship officer properly to avoid any kind of mishap.
7. Keep a Check on the Mooring Line Load: Ensure that the allowable breaking load
in any of the mooring lines does not increase 55% of its Maximum Breaking Load (MBL).
This is to prevent the line from breaking.
8. Avoid Mixed Mooring: Mixed mooring is extremely dangerous. Generally, mooring
lines of the same size and material should be used for all leads, if this is not possible
due to the available equipment, all lines in the same service, i.e. breast lines, spring
lines, head lines and stern lines should be of the same size and material. The use of
mixed moorings comprising full length synthetic ropes used in conjunction with wire
should be avoided. If a synthetic rope and a wire are used in the same service the wire
will carry almost the entire load while the synthetic rope carries practically none.
9. Keep a Continuous Check: Load on the mooring lines must be checked
continuously even after the mooring operation is over. If there is any change in the ships
ballast condition, the lines must be slacked or tightened accordingly. The condition of the
rope material should also be checked to foresee unfortunate accidents.
10. Arrange Mooring Lines Symmetrical: All mooring line must be arranged as
symmetrical as possible with the breast line. The breast line should be perpendicular to
the longitudinal centre line of the ship and the spring line should be parallel to the
longitudinal centre line.
The above mention list is not an exhaustive one but does cover all the important points
that must be taken care of without fail during mooring operation. Do you know any other
important points that must be considered during mooring operation to ensure smooth
operations and safety of crew personnel? Let us know in the comments below.

Se mencionan a continuacin son diez puntos que deben ser considerados, mientras
que la entrega la operacin de amarre de buques:
1. No permita que ningn miembro de la tripulacin extra en la cubierta :
Asegrese de que no hay personal extra se encuentran presentes en la estacin de
amarre, excepto aquellos que estn involucrados en la operacin. Cualquier persona
que no est ayudando en la operacin de amarre debe ser pidi que abandonara la
estacin de amarre para su / ella y otra de seguridad.
2. Considere Estado del tiempo: Antes de planificar la operacin de amarre, tenga en
cuenta las condiciones climticas mediante la adopcin de factores tales como el viento
y la corriente. Oficial principal y responsable de la nave debe tener los detalles de los
datos actuales y futuras de tiempo antes de comenzar la operacin de amarre.
6. Tiende Una lnea a la vez: Slo una lnea debe ser atendido en un momento durante
la operacin de amarre. Si esto no se hace, puede aumentar la carga en las otras lneas
de tendido. Si dos lneas se tendieron juntos puede conducir a la sobrecarga y la
rotura. Siga las rdenes del oficial de mster o responsables nave correctamente para
evitar cualquier tipo de percance.
7. Mantener un control sobre la carga de amarre Lnea: Asegrese de que la carga
de rotura admisible en cualquiera de las lneas de amarre no aumenta 55% de su carga
de rotura mxima (MBL). Esto es para evitar que la lnea de rotura.
8. Evite Amarre Mixto: amarre mixta es extremadamente peligroso. En general, las
amarras del mismo tamao y material deben ser utilizados para todos los conductores,
si esto no es posible debido a la disponibilidad del equipo, todas las lneas en el mismo
servicio, es decir, lneas de mama, lneas de primavera, lneas de la cabeza y las lneas
severas deben ser de del mismo tamao y material. El uso de amarres mixtos que
comprenden las cuerdas sintticas de longitud completa se utilizan en conjuncin con el
alambre debe ser evitado. Si una cuerda sinttica y un alambre se utilizan en el mismo
servicio el alambre llevar a casi toda la carga, mientras que la cuerda sinttica lleva
prcticamente ninguno.
9. Mantener un control continuo: carga en las lneas de amarre debe ser revisado
continuamente, incluso despus de la operacin de amarre se ha terminado. Si hay
algn cambio en la condicin de lastre del buque, las lneas deben ser aflojado o
apretados en consecuencia. El estado del material de cuerda tambin deben ser
evaluados para prever accidentes desafortunados.
10. Organizar Amarre lneas simtricas: Todo lnea de amarre debe ser arreglado lo
ms simtrico posible con la lnea materna. La lnea de mama debe ser perpendicular a
la lnea central longitudinal del buque y la lnea de primavera debe ser paralela a la
lnea central longitudinal.
La lista menciona arriba no es un caso exhaustiva, pero cubre todos los puntos
importantes que deben ser atendidos sin falta durante la operacin de
amarre. Conoces a otros puntos importantes que deben ser considerados durante la
operacin de amarre para garantizar el funcionamiento correcto y la seguridad del
personal de la tripulacin? Hganos saber en los comentarios a continuacin.
