Leg Mooring (CALM)

System.
The Catenary Anchor Leg Mooring (CALM) or Single Point
Mooring (SPM) system is a floating buoy that performs
the dual function of keeping a tanker moored and
transferring fluids while allowing the ship to
weathervane.
Providing a simple, economical solution to the challenge
of loading and offloading, they are used for a variety of
applications, water depths and vessel sizes ranging from
small product carriers to Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCC).
CALM systems are securely anchored offshore, permitting
cargo operations to continue in almost all weather and sea

conditions. Floating hoses, which rotate around the SPM

terminal with the tanker, connect the ship’s cargo
manifolds to the SPM. Other hoses connect the underside
of the SPM to the submarine pipelines at the sea bed via a
Pipeline End Manifold (PLEM).
