Shipbuilding in Mykolaiv is a historically significant industry in Ukraine that has established the city as a center of shipbuilding in the Black Sea region. Shipbuilding in Mykolaiv dates back to 1788, when Prince Grigory Potemkin ordered the construction of a shipyard to support the fleet. Over time, the city developed a robust shipbuilding infrastructure, including notable enterprises such as:

  • The Black Sea Shipbuilding Plant (ChSZ): the largest enterprise in the region, specializing in the construction of large vessels, including military ships.
  • Okean Shipyard: focuses on building ships for commercial and industrial purposes.
  • 61 Communards Shipyard: historically renowned for producing vessels of various classes.

Mykolaiv is also known as the "city of shipbuilders" due to its highly skilled professionals working in the industry. Today, despite challenges such as economic crises and military conflicts, the shipbuilding industry in Mykolaiv remains strategically important for Ukraine.
