The present invention addresses to a system for supporting the tension load of the riser, this component with the primary function of supporting the risers, where the riser support mechanism is an integral part of the upper cone, thus eliminating the need to install slips by the shallow dive, and, also avoiding that the locking mechanism is an integral part of the Top Termination of the Riser (L). There is a minimal number of moving parts, which favors the maintainability of the system. In addition, if maintenance is required, the size and weight of the components are compatible with diving operations. For pull-in operations, it is anticipated that the slips will return to their working position only by the action of the force of gravity. In the case of pull-out, the concept of automated slip retraction mechanism was developed. A new Top Termination of the Riser (TTR) (L) geometry is also proposed, aiming at its simplification, in which, in addition to considering the locking mechanism as an integral part of the upper cone of the Support Pipe, there is the elimination of moving components for stabilization of its side movement (a function formerly performed by the locking ring or by the gap compensator).
