Lankhorst Fairings design
Lankhorst Fairings are engineered with a strong focus on hydrodynamic performance and offshore durability. Manufactured from high-performance polymer materials using advanced moulding techniques, the fairings provide effective vortex-induced vibration (VIV) suppression, reduce drag, and improve damping behaviour under dynamic offshore conditions. Their streamlined design contributes to enhanced structural protection and long-term operational reliability in demanding subsea environments.
Optimized for installation
In addition to performance, Lankhorst VIV Fairings are designed for efficient offshore installation and simplified logistics. The fairings can be supplied as complete pre-packaged kits in shipping containers, each containing a predefined quantity of fairings together with the required support collars and fasteners. This approach streamlines handling and offshore deployment while reducing installation complexity. Lankhorst has a proven track record in major offshore projects worldwide, where our VIV Fairings have been successfully installed and operated.
