CALM buoy 3D Model

This is a 3D model of a CALM buoy. Catenary Anchor Leg Mooring buoys, are specialized offshore mooring systems used to anchor large vessels such as oil tankers and floating production units. These buoys consist of a buoyant hull that floats on the water’s surface and is connected to the seabed by multiple anchor chains, creating a catenary configuration. The CALM buoy allows the vessel to moor safely in open waters while accommodating varying water levels and weather conditions. They play a crucial role in offshore oil and gas operations, enabling efficient and safe loading and unloading of crude oil and other hydrocarbons.

• This model was designed for use as a real-time asset (see information about LODs)
• PBR (Roughness / Metalness workflow) textures
• Model is built to a real-world scale
• Units used: Meters
• Scene objects are organized into groups
• This model contains poles (more than 5 edges that converge to a single vertex.
