Abstract

A releasable connector assembly (40) for providing a releasable connection between a tubular member (32) and a payload (20) comprises a first connector (36) adapted to be secured to an end of a tubular member (32) and comprising a first latch component (52), and a second connector (38) adapted to be secured to a payload (20) and comprising a second latch component (54) configured to engage the first latch component (52) when the first and second connectors (36, 38) are engaged together. The connector assembly (40) further comprises a locking arrangement (56) configured to selectively lock the first and second latch components (52, 54) in engagement with each other, and a release mechanism (64) configured to release the locking arrangement (56) and permit disengagement of the first and second latch components (52, 54). The release mechanism (64) comprises a seat portion (66) located within the second connector (54) and configured to receive a release body (70) delivered through the tubular member (32) and first connector (36) to actuate the release mechanism (64).
