Abstract
The disclosed invention comprises a vortex-induced-vibration (VIV) suppression system for tubulars, such as tubular structures (e.g., a riser), and uses a winding, e.g., ropes or cables, wound around tubular structures in a helical manner already deployed subsea. The helically wound ropes or cables tend to act as a VIV suppression device.
