<p>A riser weak link (10) is described. The riser weak link comprises an upper housing (16) for connecting to a riser upper section (12), a lower housing (18) for connecting to a riser lower section (14), at least one connection device for releasably connecting the upper and lower housings, and a pressure application device (24) adapted to apply a coupling force to the upper housing to at least partially counter a separation force applied, in use, by well pressure, the well pressure separation force acting to separate the upper and lower housings.</p> |
