SeaLimpet Mooring Device - Gael Force Group

The SeaLimpet is a cylindrical concrete structure with specially configured in-built chambers which can be flooded with water or evacuated using compressed air, allowing it to be towed, floating to position and then flooded to sink under controlled conditions.

The SeaLimpet secures wind, wave and subsea installations to the seabed with pinpoint accuracy and, because it can be floated into position using non-specialist vessels, avoids the need for heavy transportation ships and cranes, significantly lowering deployment costs whilst reducing operational risk.
