What StoGda Ship Design & Engineering Sp. z o.o does

StoGda Ship Design & Engineering Sp. z o.o. is a Gdańsk-based, privately-held Polish ship design office founded in 1997, providing naval architecture and engineering documentation services to shipyards, offshore operators, and industrial clients. Its 39-person team delivers seven interconnected service lines: shipbuilding (ferries, cruise, container, tanker, megayacht), jack-up vessels (notably the world's largest WTIV Voltaire for Jan de Nul), offshore structures (platforms, floating docks, drilling vessels), onshore industrial engineering (gas compression stations, pipelines, pressure vessels), vessel conversions, green energy (tidal and wave power structures), and green technology (EU R&D outputs in ballast water treatment, SCR De-NOx, biofouling control).

The firm's technical core is 3D CAD modeling, FEM structural analysis, CFD calculations, and full workshop-documentation packages compliant with classification-society rules. A proprietary VR-based hull-visualization application for Android and iOS supports collision detection and structural-completeness verification. Technology inputs are concentrated in conventional naval-architecture tooling rather than AI/ML. The firm has participated in multiple EU Framework Programmes and continues to receive FENG grants for international market development and R&D (CTV hybrid vessel digital prototype).

Commercially, StoGda operates as a project-based professional services firm, acquiring customers through direct B2B relationships, EU-funded trade missions, and industry exhibitions. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific; revenue is not publicly disclosed. Customer base is concentrated in European shipbuilders (CRIST, Blohm+Voss, Deltamarin, RMDC, Chantiers de l'Atlantique), offshore operators (Jan de Nul, NYMO, Fosen Seafarm), cruise lines (MSC, Celebrity), and ferry operators (Finferries, Vegagerðin), with active expansion into Germany, Norway, Netherlands, and the UK.
