Abstract

A vertical multi-bore jumper. The jumper is outfitted with interfaces that include rotatable hubs accommodating perimeter bore terminations that may be rotated about a central production bore. In this manner, the multiple bores may be flexibly aligned with corresponding couplers at equipment located on the seabed. As a result, undue torque is not placed on the jumper in attempting to align multiple bores at the interfaces which may be frequently misaligned at the outset of such installations.
