Fairing bodies with multiple parts

A fairing for suppressing a vortex induced vibration (VIV) of a tubular. The fairing including a tail member dimensioned to suppress a vortex induced vibration of a tubular. The fairing further including an encircling member dimensioned to encircle less than an entire circumference of a tubular, the encircling member being separable from the tail member. The fairing further including a connecting assembly dimensioned to attach the tail member to the encircling member.

VORTEX INDUCED VIBRATION MITIGATION METHOD AND SYSTEM

Systems and methods for suppression of vortex induced vibration (VIV) in subsea conduits are disclosed, as may be used in oil and gas, carbon capture and storage, subsea mining or any other subsea operations where multiple conduits extend between a floating vessel and the sea floor and are subjected to VIV causing currents. VIV suppression elements may be wrapped around one or multiple conduits, and along their entire length or in regions where VIV effects are anticipated. The suppression members may also help to alleviate damage due to clashing of the conduits under the influence of the water currents.
