NOAA MOORING LINES

NOAA Ship Pisces requires the replacement of six mooring lines to maintain safe and effective docking evolutions and security while alongside a pier. Each line must be 2” x 200’ RP-12 polyester with six-foot Cordura-covered eyes on both ends, matching the specifications currently in use aboard the vessel. These lines are subject to heavy strain, environmental exposure, and chafing during routine operations, all of which contribute to a gradual loss of strength and integrity over time. The existing mooring lines are reaching the end of their service life and their ability to meet the safety margins required for secure mooring. Replacement is essential to ensure the ship remains safely secured to the pier, protecting both the vessel and personnel aboard. Timely procurement of these lines is critical to maintaining operational readiness.
