Problems arise during adverse sea conditions with ships moored to the ore loading jetty at Saldanha Bay. Under certain wave conditions moored ships undergo large motions which cause breakage of mooring lines. In order to obtain a quantitative insight into the problem an extensive measurement system was installed at Saldanha Bay. This system comprises instrumentation for the measurement of short and long waves, currents and wind, mooring line and fender forces and the motions of the moored ships. Preliminary results show that during storm conditions long waves with periods between 50 and 150 s occur at the jetty. These periods fall within the same range as the observed natural periods of horizontal oscillation of the moored ships.
