    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for monitoring a floating vessel hull mooring system by determining one or more hull rotational motions of yaw, roll, and/or pitch that do not require independent knowledge of environmental conditions. The hull rotational motion of a secure and intact mooring system can be calculated and/or established experientially over time by measuring movement of the hull to characterize the hull rotational motion at given geographical positions. A compromised mooring system will result in different hull rotational motion of at least one of yaw, roll, and/or pitch. By monitoring the hull rotational motion for a given geographical position to be compared to the theoretical values (and/or previous recorded values), it is then possible to assess that at least a portion of the mooring system has been compromised and in at some embodiment indicate which portion of the mooring system has been compromised.

    Abstract: The disclosure provides a method and system to monitor and advise the status of a group of floating platforms, such as offshore floating wind platforms, by using a floating platform's motion in the group and detect one or more anomalies to identify one or more disorders (including irregularities) in the group. Input for this method can include information of wind speed and direction and orientations of the wind turbine nacelles. The orientation of the platform can complement the orientation of a wind turbine nacelle on the platform in case the platform is equipped with a turret. Disorders include, but not limited to, mooring line failure, shifts of a drag anchor, other issues with the mooring system components such as fairleads, issues with the ballasting configuration of the floater, issues with the turret (if any), issues with the swivel of the nacelle, issues with the rotor, and issues with the blades.
