Marine Foam Fender Impact Resistant Durable Easy To Install And Handle
Description
In offshore operations, Floating Foam Fenders are crucial for protecting supply vessels and platforms. Their resistance to seawater, UV, and heavy impact makes them ideal for extreme marine conditions.
( Case: An offshore drilling platform in West Africa utilized Floating Foam Fenders for supply boat docking. The fenders absorbed strong impact forces from vessels carrying heavy equipment and supplies. Even under continuous use, the fenders maintained shape and performance, proving cost-effective and enhancing safety for offshore operations. )

Features
Customizable Appearance
The fender’s surface can be customized with different colors, logos, or identification markings, allowing easy branding and operational management.
Versatility Across Applications
Suitable for ports, naval bases, offshore platforms, STS (ship-to-ship) transfers, and Ro-Ro terminals, foam fenders provide multi-purpose protection.
Easy Installation
The lightweight design and simple configuration allow for quick installation without specialized equipment, reducing labor costs and downtime.
Environmentally Safe
Foam fenders are designed with non-toxic materials and do not pose pollution risks to the marine environment, unlike some older fendering systems.
Applications
Offshore Construction Support
In offshore oil and gas projects, air lift bags assist in positioning heavy underwater structures, pipelines, and equipment during installation and maintenance operations.
Pipeline Installation and Repair
Underwater air lift bags provide buoyancy control during the laying and repair of subsea pipelines, helping to position and support sections during welding and connection.
Underwater Demolition
Demolition teams use air lift bags to safely raise and remove underwater structures, bridge components, or wreckage after controlled explosions or decommissioning.
