The present invention relates to a fairlead chain stopper having a detachable chain wheel, whereby the movement of the fairlead chain extending into the water from an offshore structure is regulated in both directions, and thus the mooring tension of the offshore structure can be easily adjusted in normal situations and the fairlead chain can be easily disconnected in emergency situations. Also, the chain wheel in contact with the fairlead chain is detachable and is thus easy to maintain and fix. Furthermore, since a chain wheel can be selectively applied to a plurality of fairlead chain stoppers, the cost of operating a mooring system for the offshore structure can be reduced.
