Marine Software Development
TTI are the sole developers and distributors of OPTIMOOR, World leading mooring analysis software
TTI has a dedicated team of software engineers with many years of experience and capable of developing bespoke software solutions to meet client and application requirements
OPTIMOOR is an easy-to-use mooring analysis computer program for use by vessel and terminal personnel as well as by port designers and naval architects. It is based on the Oil Companies International Marine Forum (OCIMF) recommendations and procedures and includes OCIMF wind and current coefficients for tanker and gas carrier (prismatic / moss) vessels.
TTI are the sole developers and distributors of OPTIMOOR. A comprehensive and powerful software package that can model a vast array of mooring scenarios including Static, Dynamic, Wave Response, STS, CBMs, SPMs, turret, tower Yoke, collars, spread moorings, load out, passing ship, LNG Bunkering etc.
OPTI-LIFE is an established programme to predict the residual rope life, in for example, a mooring application. The loading history and rope type are the inputs for OPTI-LIFE. This programme forms the basis of a fully automated system for rope monitoring, where load cells provide the load input. The output is the rope life already used and the remaining life. OPTI-LIFE will trigger a warning when the rope need to be replaced. This programme not only enhances safety by ensuring timely rope replacement but it also cuts costs. Because the loading history is uncertain and was previously difficult to establish, most ropes are replaced long before their useful lifetime has been reached.

Fibre Rope Modeller (FRM) is an extensive rope modelling programme. The programme derives the rope properties from the rope construction, basic yarn data and secondary yarn properties such as the coefficient of friction and abrasion resistance. Under varying load, elements will slip and internal abrasion will occur. The rope will also creep leading to stress rupture. FRM can determine the rope’s strength, predict the tension-tension fatigue life and stress rupture, determine elongation and creep elongation, establish the static and dynamic modulus and give the roe diameters and unit weights.
