Definition
A subsea structure covering the equipment (for example: a wellhead or a manifold) in order to protect against trawl gear damage.
Description
The structure may be designed to allow trawl gear to pass over it without snagging or stopping the vessel (termed 'overtrawl'), or to either deflect or to deliberately snag fishing gear but allow easy retrieval (termed 'fisher friendly').
