Abstract	This paper analyzes fender selection process in berth design and focuses on the case of a rigid berth with rubber cone fenders. Fender types and performance comparison methods are studied along with current numerical models. Berth design methods are analyzed with a focus on berthing energy calculation and fender selection. A new approach to determine the required fender capacity is suggested. A finite elements rubber cone model is tested and used in simulations of angular side berthing. Results show that the energy absorbed by the fender can be much higher than what can be calculated with the current berth design method. A new form for the expression of the energy that must be absorbed by the fender during angular berthing impact is suggested.
