Abstract: A riser system including: at least one riser for extending from infrastructure on a sea bed and each riser having a riser termination; an end support restrained above and relative to the sea bed and having attachment means to couple each riser termination for storage and decouple each riser termination for coupling to a floating vessel; and an intermediate support supporting an intermediate portion of the riser to define a catenary bend between the intermediate support and the riser termination device.
