MOORING ANALYSIS SOFTWARE
Set Up And Manage Catenary Data Quickly And Easily
WinCAT is catenary analysis software for hanging cable systems - such as offshore moorings, umbilicals and flexible risers. WinCAT makes setting up and managing catenary data extremely easy, even for someone unfamiliar with cable systems.
POWERFUL AND EASY TO USE
Set Up Catenary Data Fast
The system has been developed by experts in the field to bring sophisticated and complex catenary analysis to any offshore practitioner.
WinCAT is ready to perform both onshore and offshore in design analysis, installation studies, anchor laying, rig moves, sub-sea operations and many more applications.
"We find WinCAT to be an excellent complement to our software library. It has an excellent user interface & is very user friendly."
John R Pittman - Deputy Head, US Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center

WinCAT Software In Detail
New Data Creation
The create new data sequence, steps through the following series of data entry windows: Project Details, Catenary Setup, Line Composition, Section Details, Line Deployment, Catenary Lines.
Dashboard
The Dashboard shows all existing projects within the system. Selecting a project will load the project edit screen with the Catenary Lines summary allowing the data to be modified, or the catenary results to be computed. From here a user can create a new project which leads into the sequence of data entry windows which allows new catenary lines to be set up, or import a file which will create a new project with information and Catenary Line setup extracted from the file.
Catenary Setup
Catenary Setup allows for setting up or editing the details of a catenary line. WinCAT can handle the data for any number of catenary lines. All lines are Enabled by default. If the enabled check is cleared, then the catenary line becomes dormant. The data is retained, but no results are computed or are available for printing.

Line Composition
A line is composed of one or more sections which are identified by their number. Every line must have a section which is attached to the vessel at the surface. All the sections defined for a line are shown in WinCAT under the Line Composition tab where the Line Type, Nominal Size, Length and Node Type are summarised.
Catenary Plot Tabs
The Catenary Plot tabs display the output from the computations in a series of tabs, one for each catenary line. The WinCAT catenary plots are accurately drawn and can be included in the printed output. Line Details provides a quick way to access the Catenary Setup for modifying the data of the selected catenary.
Results
The Results Table located under the Catenary Plots shows the numeric output from the computations for one catenary line in an easily understood tabular format. The results table can be included in the printed output, and the content and order of the results table can be customised so that only the information relevant to a particular analysis is given. Where there are several catenary lines in the dataset the Results Table relates to the selected Catenary Plot.
