FIELD: mooring procedures. SUBSTANCE: ship mooring system having attachment zone of surface of bottom includes mooring member connected with sea bottom by means of many anchor cables; when not in use, it is held at preset depth below sea level. Upper surface of mooring member has sealing surface surrounding the target zone connected with attachment zone. Mooring system includes also device for raising the mooring member from inoperative position to mooring position whose sealing surface is in contact with surface of ship's bottom in such way that attachment zone is sealed between surface of ship's bottom and target zone; mooring system is also provided with pump for reducing the pressure between surface of ship's bottom and target zone on upper surface of mooring member to first level for immobilization of mooring member relative to surface of ship's bottom and to second level so that mooring member is held in sliding contact with surface of ship's bottom. Mooring system is also provided with device for finding out shift of mooring member from required position in attachment zone. EFFECT: possibility of aligning in attachment zone without separating mooring member from bottom. 40 cl, 6 dwg
