Vertically loaded anchor, a new type of mooring foundations for deep-water offshore engineering

深水系泊基础是深水系泊系统的重要组成,随着海洋油气资源开发的加速发展,深水系泊系统的关键技术成为国际海洋油气资源开发的重要研究领域。法向承力锚(VLA)是一种崭新的适用于深海油气资源开发的系泊基础形式,论文对其应用、性能特点、工作原理、安装与回收以及计算分析方法等进行了全面介绍,以期对科研人员进一步认识深水系泊系统的关键技术有所帮助,并对国内深水系泊系统的研发起到一定的借鉴作用。

Mooring foundations are important parts of a mooring system in deep-water offshore engineering. With the rapid exploitation of ocean resources especially of oil and gas, the key techniques of deep-water mooring system are becoming more and more important over the world. The vertically loaded anchor （VLA） is a new type of mooring foundations for deep-water exploitation of ocean resources. The application, performance, working mechanism, installation and reuse, and computational method are briefly described in this paper. It is expected that the paper is helpful to researchers to understand further the updated key techniques of deep-water mooring system of the world, and hence it can stimulate the research and development of our domestic deep-water mooring system.
