Ship Separators

Ship Separators

Ship separators are floating devices typically designed either with Ocean Guard netless foam-filled fenders. Ship Separators are typically designed to provide a certain minimum required standoff between a ship and ship or ship and a dock. Ship Separators will be used for the alongside mooring of ships for the protection from ship-to-ship damage due to vessel maneuvers where vessel-to-vessel or vessel-to-pier contact may occur. It protects ship hulls and absorbs environmental and berthing loads during mooring. These portable structures operate with either a buoyancy chamber or an associated floating device, typically the Ocean Guard netless foam-filled fenders. Designed to be corrosion-resistant and flexible, composite ship separators can be used in different mooring conditions to prevent damage to ships by other vessels, docks, or wharves.
