5、poration of thruster-assisted mooring (TAM) capability in the design of mooring systems for mobile offshore units, there is a desire in the offshore industry for optional classification notations for TAM systems. This Guide is developed and issued in response to that desire. The evaluation procedure

6、 and technical requirements are to be used for verifying the eligibility of a TAM system (for mobile offshore units) for the optional notations TAM (Automatic position control system), TAM-R (Automatic position control system with redundancy), and TAM (Manual) (Manual position control system). It is

7、 anticipated that after publication of the subject Guide, industry will have established criteria for TAM, thereby allowing verification of the arrangements and potentially increasing the overall level of safety. This Guide becomes effective on 15 January 2013. Users are advised to check periodicall

15、 heading, damping low frequency motions, or a combination of these functions. Thruster-assisted mooring (TAM) systems can be broadly categorized into manual and automatic position control, depending on the type of thrust assist (TA) system fitted on the unit. 3 Application (1 December 2015) The prov

16、isions of this Guide apply to mobile offshore units operating with TAM systems. Sections 2 and 3 of the Guide provide the technical requirements and survey requirements for the optional notations: TAM (Automatic position control system), TAM-R (Automatic position control system with redundancy), and

17、 TAM (Manual) (Manual position control system) for mobile offshore units. At the request of the Owners, the TAM system may be verified for compliance with the provisions of Sections 2 and 3, with the appropriate class notation assigned. This Guide may be used in tandem with Appendix 3-4-A1, “Guide f

18、or Position Mooring Systems” of the ABS Rules for Building and Classing Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODU Rules). 3.1 Class Notations (1 December 2015) The requirements for conditions of Classification for the entire drilling units and offshore structures are contained in the ABS Rules for Condit

19、ions of Classification Offshore Units and Structures (Part 1). Additional requirements specific to thruster-assisted mooring systems are contained in this Guide. For TAM systems, which are fitted with a TA system that is capable of automatically maintaining the position and heading of the unit under

20、 specified maximum environmental conditions having an independent centralized manual position control with automatic heading control that have been built, installed and commissioned to the satisfaction of the ABS Surveyors to the full requirements of this Guide, where approved by the Committee for s

25、mental conditions, will be classed and distinguished in the ABS Record by the notation null TAM (Manual). This notation assumes continuous attention of a TA operator. The symbol “null” (Maltese-Cross) signifies that the system was built, installed and commissioned to the satisfaction of the ABS Surv

26、eyors. TAM systems that have not been built under survey to ABS, but which are submitted for Classification, will be subjected to special consideration. Where found satisfactory and thereafter approved by the Committee, it will be classed and distinguished in the Record by the notation described abo

27、ve, but the symbol “null” signifying survey during construction will be omitted.
