A method for tensioning a subsea anchor line, comprising providing an in-line mooring connector in an anchor line and using an subsea remotely operated vehicle (ROV) to attach a removable chain jack to the in-line mooring connector. Once the removable chain jack has been attached the chain jack is actuated via an umbilical from a surface vessel, an upper portion of the anchor line is subsequently locked to the in-line mooring connector, after which the removable chain jack is removed from the in line mooring connector using the ROV and the chain jack is recovered at the surface vessel.
