The system serves as a conduit, connecting the wellhead on the seafloor to the Jackup rig. The Riser System facilitates containment of the drilling fluids, well control, and in some cases production fluids.

The legs of the jackup rig reach the seabed, providing a fixed point of support and reducing the range of movement, which allows for a simpler riser.
