This paper describes design and fabrication of the innovative Morpeth SeaStar TLP foundation and tendon system. Advanced analytical techniques in the form of coupled, time-domain simulations were used in specifying tendon equipment. This paper describes the use of those methods in developing the components making up a low-cost, long-life, mooring system. The methods developed are generally applicable to all tension or taut-moored structures. The components developed are particularly well suited to the pre-installation planned and carried out for the Morpeth SeaStar.
