At the present time there are around 400 subsea completions worldwide and even the most conservative surveys predict a doubling of this number within the next decade.

This paper discusses the evolution and operation of a flexible, self-contained system which makes optimum use of existing technology thereby offering a safe, reliable and economical system for riserless re-entry into any subsea well.
