Tethers

Tethers enable mooring at depths unreachable by
wire and chain alone

Whether you need polyester tethers, or your applications call for the ultra-high strength and light weight of Samson MoorLite™ tethers, our products meet your specifications.

MoorLite™ tethers: The strength and lightweight of Dyneema® in the lengths required by deepwater exploration and production

Lightweight, ultra-strong high-performance MoorLite™ tethers provide easier handling and allow mooring in ultra-deep waters, where drilling and production operations are relocated by modern technology. With the strength of wire at 1/7th the weight, they offer easier handling and safer, faster operations.

Samson MoorLite™ tethers feature 3-strand sub-ropes made with 100% Dyneema® SK-78 fiber and a full filtration barrier wrap. The braided cover is made from polyester with a marine finish for optimal performance. Constructed in either torque-matched or torque-balanced configurations, MoorLite™ tethers are available in the long lengths needed to meet today’s demands. The increased strength and significant weight reduction over traditional polyester tethers may allow downsizing for more efficient mooring operations.

In addition, every MoorLite™ tether comes complete with The Samson Advantage — the most comprehensive customer service package in the industry. Samson’s technical sales and engineering team works with you throughout your project, from design and setting initial specifications through necessary on-sitesupport. Manufacturing in both our Lafayette, Louisianna, and our Ferndale, Washington, plants assures ready access to the Gulf of Mexico and around the world. That’s The Samson Advantage — our customers call it peace of mind.
