Resinex is the world leader in the field of giant buoys, authentic mammoths of the sea, able to reach very high levels of buoyancy and to satisfy the widest range of demands required by the oil industry both for the mooring and support of ships. The customer satisfaction throughout the world is confirmed by our products success.
This big buoys are based on a modular system and tailor made for any particular need. This particular modular system can also be transported and positioned at a very low cost. In 2007, our company projected and built these “monsters” with the capacity to face the most adverse meteo-marine conditions without any difficulty.
A giant 4.3 Mt diameter Resinex catamaran model Pem 43 buoy, with a net buoyancy of over 20 tons and with a Marimatech quick release hook (www.marimatech.com) mooring system was installed in Venezuela (at Carenero, in the state of Miranda, 250 kilometres east of the port of La Guaira) to be used at the PDVSA oil company’s terminal.
In South Africa, for the Moma mineral sands project, another catamaran buoy was installed, but with a smaller size, with a net buoyancy of 11 tons. The mining zone of Moma extends a good 58 kilometres along the coast and 7 kilometres inland. It is calculated that 750 thousand tons of mineral sand can be produced a year.
The mooring installation which has a very high level of stability was furnished by Resinex to Anchor Industries (South Africa) and is equipped with an AIS transponder (Atonis of Pharos Marine).
