A floating offshore mooring chain apparatus for preventing collision with a ship is proposed. The mooring chain apparatus includes a buoyant body floating on the water surface to transfer resources to a transport ship, a plurality of mooring chains fixed to the seabed to locate the buoyant body in position on the water surface, and a plurality of spider buoys disposed to a lower portion of the buoyant body such that the mooring chains laterally penetrate through the spider buoys, respectively, and extend toward the seabed in different directions, so that the mooring chains are moved by a rotating force along the extension directions thereof to displace the buoyant body.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for passively preventing a marine floating body from twisting during mooring by controlling tension in ropes connected to the marine floating body within a predetermined allowable limit. The apparatus includes: a floating main body connected to the ropes, fixed on the sea, and providing a space for marine work; winches disposed on the floating main body and retracting or releasing the ropes fixing the floating main body; fairleads disposed on portions of the floating main body and guiding the ropes to the winches through themselves; and braking units disposed on portions of the floating main body at a predetermined distance from the fairleads, with the ropes passing through the fairleads and themselves, and controlling a speed of the ropes that are retracted to the winches at a predetermined speed.
