Marine Farms

The added Security and Efficiencies gained when using SCREW ANCHORS for your Marine Farm;

  • Independent testing on a range of sub-straits has shown a 25 tonne capacity giving a safe working load of 12.5 tonnes with a safety factor of 2 is possible using our shaftless anchor units
  • Safe diver-less installation
  • Accuracy of installation using our DGPS system and ability to use a very low warp ratio means you can get greater utilisation of your consented space
  • This means correct and accurate spacing between lines to ensure good/even water flow and access between lines for vessel support
  • Has the least footprint of any anchoring system on the market – once the anchor is screwed 4 to 6 metres into the seabed the only visual evidence is the warp coming up through the seabed to the surface – no degradation of the seabed hence the tag Environmentally Friendly
  • Long lasting, up to 25 years so far, as the anchors are buried so deep into the seabed there is no oxidation process to allow rusting of the high quality steel
