An installation for extracting products from underwater sea beds comprises a base section which is permanently sunk in the sea bed, a reusable well section, and water-tight flexible connecting means releasably connecting together the base section and well section. The well section has sufficient internal dimensions to allow workmen and equipment to pass therethrough and is open to the atmosphere so that the working space for the workmen is maintained at atmospheric pressure. The reusable well section may be disconnected from the base section and reused again at another extracting site.
