Moudi Terminal (CMMOU)

The major structures of the Moudi/Lokele Oil Field are as follows: Production platform VT: 04°08.1'N 008°27.3'E, on Moudi field. Production Platform J: 04° 10.400'N 008° 24.300'E, on Lokele field. The SBM loading buoy: 04°07.0'N 008°29.2'E, on Moudi field.

Tropical.

Moudi Terminal is located in the Moudi Oil Field located approx 53nm W of the town of Limbe and approx 19nm SSW of Bakasi Peninsula.

280,000DWT, BCM 174m.

Approx 1,000,000t of cargo and 10 vessels are handled annually.

Standby anchorage area: A circle, radius 1nm is located within a centre located at: 04°07.6'N 008°31.1'E. Approach to the standby anchorage area is from the E, in a sector between the bearing 210°-330° to the buoy from the ship.

SBM buoy: Has a radar reflector. At night it shows a light flashing, the morse code letter 'U', every 15sec (5nm visibility). A fog horn is installed, in case of poor visibility, it sounds the 'U' signal every 30sec, (audible for 2nm).

Terminal Mooring Team: A team of 4 to 6 deck hands under the responsibility of the Loading Master may be provided by the terminal to give assistance to the ship's crew, but without substituting them. Winches and windlasses are operated exclusively by the ship's crew. Approach to the buoy: While the ship is approaching the buoy, a workboat provided by the terminal is used to keep the floating hoses away from the ships course. Meanwhile the Loading Master stays on the fo'csle and provides the pilot and the Master with the required information on the manoeuvre. Securing the mooring rope: The mooring team at the fo'csle sets out a messenger line, (diameter 30mm, length 200m) passing through a centre fairlead, the end of which is sent to the terminal Zodiac boat. When the tanker is at a convenient distance from the buoy the Zodiac crew connects this messenger rope to the end of the polypropylene hawser, (heaving line, diameter 80mm, length 180m) attached to the mooring rope of the buoy. The messenger rope and the heaving line are hauled using a tanker winch or windlass, until a convenient length of chain, placed between the heaving line and the mooring rope of the buoy is on deck. This chain is then made fast, using the tanker's chain stopper (if fitted) or a strong nylon snotter rope provided by the Terminal. Pulling off: The Terminal workboat keeps the vessel away from the buoy once the vessel is moored. As the mooring rope of the buoy is fastened, the work boat proceeds to the stern of the vessel. To secure the end of the tanker, a strong hawser is then secured onto her towing winch. Using this towing rope, the workboat shall apply a moderate but permanent pull for the duration of loading of the tanker to avoid her bow coming in contact with the buoy, should a change of current or wind arise.

Pilotage is compulsory. The pilot will board at the anchorage, approx 2nm ENE of the SBM. An appropriate safe pilot ladder must be provided and properly lit at night.

Restricted areas: Moudi Oil field is protected by a "Hazardous Area" where navigation is only permitted to tankers visiting the terminal and also to service boats and equipment used for its operations. This area is limited by the following points: ..... AA 04°09.2'N 008°29.7'E BB 04°06.5'N 008°29.7'E CC 04°06.5'N 008°25.4'E DD 04°10.0'N 008°25.4'E Mooring at the loading buoy is carried out in daylight only, between 0600-1800hrs, however sailing may take place at night.

Range 2.5m.

There is 1 small tug available.

Prevailing winds from 4-10kts blow from the SW sector throughout the year. The strongest winds up to 45kts are rare and occur from Feb to May, Oct and Dec. They may accompany tornadoes generally travelling from E to W. The rainy season is from Jun to Sep. Current is mainly influenced by the Guinea current. Generally sets SW and rarely exceeds 1kt.
