Quick Release Mooring Hooks Story

Quick Release Mooring Hooks were developed in the 1950’s after an increasing number of shipping accidents in the oil and gas industry. They are now widely used as throughout the maritime industry, in Oil and Gas, and other volatile bulk cargo terminals where safety is critical. The Quick Release Hook Systems vary from basic manually controlled single hooks, to multiple hooks incorporating load monitoring pins, remote release buttons and integrated centralised control panels, allowing operators real time information on the mooring loads. In the event of an emergency, the hook release can be activated, and the mooring lines and vessel immediately released, even when the mooring lines are loaded up to the hook’s operating capacity. Fender Systems

As QRMH’s play such an important role in operational safety, quality and reliability are very important factors, that should be taken into account when deciding which company to use. Specialist Port Equipment work together with MF Straatman, who have been manufacturing and supplying QRMH,s and other associated mooring and towing equipment to leading port operates for more than 50 years. Marine Bollards

When combined with environmental and approach speed monitors and visual display boards (all part of Specialist Port Equipments product range), QRMH’s are helping operators maintain safe working environments when dealing with volatile and potentially hazardous products.
