Think ship design is routine? Think again.

At Damen Engineering Gdańsk, we work on some of the most exciting projects on the market. Drone carriers? We’ve got them. Tugs? Of course. From barges and offshore service vessels like CSOVs and walk-to-work ships, all the way to advanced navy platforms — this is where the future of shipbuilding is shaped.

As Damen Engineering Gdańsk we are set up to be involved into the engineering process from the moment when an idea is generated by the client to the vessel delivery. We are responsible for transforming the initial design into a complete and practicable engineering package.
