Abstract:
A system for tethering a subsea blowout preventer (BOP) includes a plurality of anchors disposed about the subsea BOP and secured to the sea floor, a plurality of tensioning systems, and a plurality of flexible tension members. Each tensioning system is coupled to a frame of the BOP and is configured to apply a tensile preload to one of the tension members. Each tension member is coupled to one of the anchors and extends from a first end coupled to one of the tensioning systems to a second end coupled to an anchor.

Claim (Index 21):
The system of  claim 20 , wherein each locking mechanism includes a spool ring coupled to the spool, a hub fixably coupled to the anchor, and a lock ring slidably mounted to the hub;\n wherein the spool ring includes a plurality of internal splines, the hub includes a plurality of external splines, and the lock ring includes a plurality of external splines and a plurality of internal splines; wherein the external splines of the hub mate and intermesh with the internal splines of the lock ring; wherein the internal splines of the spool ring are configured to mate and intermesh with the plurality of external splines of the lock ring; wherein the lock ring is configured to move axially along the hub between an unlocked position with the external splines of the lock ring axially spaced apart from the internal splines of the spool ring and a locked position with the external splines of the lock ring intermeshing with the internal splines of the spool ring.
