End fitting for a riser and method

摘要

The present invention relates to an end fitting of a flexible riser. The device makes it possible to carry out the assembly procedure without the need to bend the tensile armour. By means of the assembly procedure thereof, the technique proposed eliminates residual tension due to plastic deformation of the tensile armour and modifications in the microstructural properties of the steel, imposed by current end fittings and the corresponding techniques for assembling the same.
