Abstract

An umbilical comprising an outer sheath and a core enclosed by the outer sheath, the core comprising a plurality of umbilical components and filler material between the umbilical components and the outer sheath, characterized in that the filler material is crenellated around its circumference to provide crenellations between the filler material and the outer sheath. In this way, the umbilical now includes crenellations or a crenelated portion facing the outer sheath, which can act as a shock absorber against external impact on the umbilical, with no additional manufacturing steps required. This provides the umbilical with increased impact resistance.
