A stabilizer attached to a marine tubular assists in inhibiting movement of the marine tubular when it is subjected to forces from ocean currents and waves encountered in subsea and shore crossing zones. The stabilizer includes a first plate and a second plate that are joined on opposite sides of the marine tubular. The stabilizer also includes one or more tubercles that extend from the stabilizer and inhibit motion of the marine tubular. A hydrodynamic shape of the one or more tubercles reduces drag as ocean currents flow over the stabilizer. The tubercle also can increase the moment arm of the stabilizer thereby inhibiting overturning of the stabilizer. The surfaces of the tubercle are shaped to promote the flow of ocean water below the stabilizer when the marine tubular is laid on a seabed or shore crossing zone.
