We are your experts in internal disconnectable turret mooring systems.

In fact, we designed and delivered the largest, most sophisticated, and deepest internal disconnectable turret mooring systems in the world. SOFEC’s internal disconnectable turret enables vessels to disconnect and sail away to avoid typhoons, hurricanes, and icebergs in remote, deep water, and other challenging environments. Ships return to normal production operations with a quick, reliable reconnect sequence. The design adapts to a wide range of water depths.

Industry Highlights
  • Terra Nova: An elaborate, disconnectable turret for the iceberg-prone Northern Atlantic Grand Banks, Canada
  • Prenees, Stybarrow and Santos: Three disconnectable turret systems off northwest Australia
  • China: Designed and supplied SOFEC’s first internal disconnectable turret in 1993 for floating storage and offloading vessel moored in the South China Sea
  • Canada: Delivered the first disconnectable turret for an iceberg-prone region in the Terra Nova Field, offshore Newfoundland in the Grand Banks
  • Australia: Three back-to-back-to-back units delivered between January 2005 and February 2010 provided incremental design enhancements highlighting continual improvement of SOFEC’s disconnectable turret technology
  • Worldwide: SOFEC leads the industry in number or systems in operation and overall operational experience with disconnectable systems.
