主权项 1. An end fitting suitable for venting gas from annuli of a flexible pipe body connected thereto, comprising: a first vent flow fluid communication path connecting in fluid communication an inner annulus region of the flexible pipe body and an exit port at an exterior of the end fitting; a further vent flow fluid communication path connecting in fluid communication an outer annulus region of the flexible pipe body and either the said exit port or a further exit port at the exterior of the end fitting; and a non-return valve provided in the further vent flow fluid communication path for inhibiting gas from entering the outer annulus region from the end fitting.
