Resinex, thanks to its multi-year production of support and mooring buoys, in the first part of 2021 supplied to EPPC, an Egyptian producer of plastics, six large catamaran buoys with a net buoyancy of 34 tons and a diameter of about six metres.

The buoys were installed off Port Said, where EPPC owns a terminal for the supply of gas for its plants.

This supply integrates the previous one of 2016, in which Resinex had already provided catamaran buoys, but with a lower size.

A remote hook release system was installed on the new buoys to increase the safety of unmooring operations. The two hooks have a safe working load (SWL) of 90 tons each. The release is remotely controlled through an electronic system self-powered by batteries and solar panels.

Also in this case, the Resinex catamaran buoys use their patented system of levers connected to the mooring in the water, which allows to stabilize the buoy even under high stresses.
