A pull-in head assembly (8) for releasably connecting a pulling arrangement (112) to an elongate flexible structure (4, 6). The pull-in head assembly (8) comprises a body (30) which defines a pulling axis X of the pull-in head assembly (8) and a retaining member (32) arranged around the pulling axis X. The retaining member (32) is configured to secure the pull-in head assembly (8) to an elongate flexible structure (4, 6) such that, in use, a pulling force exerted on the pull-in head assembly (8) along the pulling axis X is transferred to the elongate flexible structure (4, 6). The retaining member (32) is configured to release the pull-in head assembly (8) from the elongate flexible structure (4, 6) when the pulling force exceeds a predetermined threshold such that the pull-in head assembly (8) can be separated from the elongate flexible structure (4, 6).
