Zusammenfassung:A temporary fastening and pull in tool (10) for a power umbilical (1) to be installed at an offshore facility, such as a wind generator facility. The power umbilical has an outer sheath (4) surrounding a power core (2) and two rods (3). The tool comprises a packer assembly (11) for sealing and giving mechanical support around a portion of the sheath (4) situated at or near a free end portion (1b) of the power umbilical (1). A load bearing arrangement (23) connects to the packer assembly adapted to receive an end portion (3a) of the rods. A fastener (14) secures the rods to the load bearing arrangement (23). A lifting device (16) is attached to the load bearing arrangement (23) for guiding the power umbilical to the offshore facility and ease the pull in operations of the power umbilical.
