CORROSION ANALYSIS OF 304 STAINLESS STEEL WIRE ROPE AND FITTINGS FROM A NOMAD BUOY MOORING SYSTEM AFTER 34-MONTHS CONTINUOUS SERVICE IN THE GULF OF MEXICO
2006
Lennox, Jr, Thomas J.
Samples from a 1250-ft length of 304 stainless steel wire rope and associated stainless steel tube thimbles and stainless steel cable clamps were studied to determine the extent of corrosion after 34-months continuous immersion in the Gulf of Mexico. This 3/4-in.-diam wire rope (6 x 19 Warrington - IWRC 7 x 7) was used in the upper portion of a Nomad buoy mooring system. The performance of this particular buoy design is important because of its possible influence on the national buoy program.
