BEXCO MAXIMUS HMPE Mooring rope

Some nice images from Malaysia of an #LNGTanker change from steel wire to BEXCO nv-sa MAXIMUS® HMPE mooring rope to enable her to transit the Panama Canal, as by law mooring lines deployed there cannot be steel.

Made with Dyneema® SK78 fibers, this in-house developed rope is up to seven times lighter than steel wire, making it easier for the crew to handle onboard #mooring #lngshipping
