“Permanent Chain Chasers offer a credible alternative when compared with a standard buoy and pennant arrangement”
Permanent Chain Chasers are pear shaped and used extensively in the offshore industry for use with semi-submersible drilling rigs.
Overview:
The permanent chain chaser with shackle eye offers superior sliding and penetration characteristics and is suitable for use with most recognised anchor types. Such types include AC-14, LWT, Stevin, Danforth and Moorfast anchors.
Where customers have special requirements, LMS has the ability to produce permanent chain chasers to your individual requirements.
