Abstract
An anchoring apparatus for a floating offshore structure comprising a mooring plug adapted to rotate relatively to the floating offshore structure. From the mooring plug, an even number of anchor cables are radially stretched to the seabed. On the mooring plug, two mobile windlasses are mounted, which can move under any pair of the even number of diametrically opposed anchor cables, and which haul the pair of anchor cables while holding them with a warping drum and a pressing drum.
