MMS Engineers are faced with approving a variety of projects that can be influenced by VIV (Deepwater risers, Pipeline spans over irregular bottom topography subjected to strong bottom currents, onshore elevated pipelines subjected to strong winds). MMS engineers need to be aware of the potential for VIV to damage such structures and various options that can be useful in mitigating VIV.
