Length(s) of pipe mounted between the wireline blowout preventer and the stuffing box (or hydraulic packing head). Sometimes long enough to enclose the entire downhole instrument. Usually between 2 and 3 feet long. Should be equipped with 2 in. outlet through which the well can be killed or flowed if necessary. Under pressure, when broken cable strands bunch up under glands in the stuffing box, the blowout preventer can be closed and wires removed. If the downhole tool assembly is too long to fit inside a short (2-3 ft riser), the blowout preventer can be closed, the cable can be cut at a specific distance measured from the blowout preventer and a long riser with stuffing box installed. See illustration at lubricator. Also compare marine drilling riser.

The upright piece between two stairsteps.
A rise in stair construction is measured from the top of one tread vertically, to the top of the next. A rise is part of an ergonomic formula for designing safe access. A riser board is the board set behind the tread to close off the gap from the top of one tread to the under side of the next tread.

The vertical component of a step which, along with the stringers, supports the treads.
(1) That section of pipeline extending from the ocean floor up the platform. Also, the vertical tube in a steam generator convection bank that circulates water and steam upward. (2) A reservoir of molten metal connected to a casting to provide additional metal to the casting, required as the result of shrinkage before and during solidification.
A large-diameter pipe that connects the subsea BOP stack to a floating surface rig to take mud returns to the surface. Without the riser, the mud would simply spill out of the top of the stack onto the seafloor. The riser might be loosely considered a temporary extension of the wellbore to the surface.
the vertical part of a step.
The vertical section of a step in a staircase.
A small platform used as a setpiece.

In stairwork, the vertical member between treads. Riser may be omitted in certain stair designs.
In mountainous terrain where much debris is encountered, the entrance to a culvert sometimes becomes easily clogged. Therefore, a corrugated metal pipe or a structure made of timber or concrete with small perforations, called a riser, is installed vertically to permit entry of water and prohibit the entry of mud and debris. The riser may be increased in height as the need occurs.
