This study outlines analysis about selection of suitable material for offshore technology farming, especially in seaweed farming. Floating structures has proved to have economic a land dependable, operational advantages and it emerging to be more acceptable from an environmental point of view. Generally, floating structure is used for the construction of various facilities and accommodations. Study of properties of components for offshore aquaculture technology farming involved the properties of material selection that is suitable for floating offshore structure, and is conducted based on the case study area which is in Setiu, Terengganu. The materials are two types of rope; manila and polyester, and SHE-20type of buoy. The result from the tensile test showed that manila rope has better usage for larger force and polyester rope can be use within smaller scale of force.
