Engine duct dimples

Could find anything with a bit of a Google search, so I thought I would put it out there on the forum - with the engine intake of the turboprop I fly I've noticed the surface inside appears dimpled. Is this an intentional design (similar to golf ball dimples and the air flow around) or is it another reason, perhaps to do with rigidity?

Cheers all.
