Corporate Profile

Penguin International Limited is a Singapore-based, publicly listed designer, builder, owner and operator of high-speed aluminium commercial vessels.

Established in 1996, Penguin has grown into one of the world’s leading aluminium shipbuilders.

According to S&P Global Sea-web, Penguin is the world’s largest builder of IMO-registered aluminium commercial vessels, including crewboats and security vessels.

Through our wholly owned shipyards in Singapore and Batam, Indonesia, we undertake both build-for-stock (BFS) and build-to-order (BTO) programmes, producing a broad range of vessels, including crewboats, security vessels, patrol vessels, emergency response craft, passenger ferries, RoPaxes and composite defence vessels.

Beyond shipbuilding, Penguin owns a fleet of crewboats, security vessels, ferries and workboats, and operates them in-house through wholly owned fleet management offices in Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Dubai.

This unique Integrated Maritime Platform combines ship design and shipbuilding with fleet ownership and fleet operations within a single group.

Today, Penguin employs approximately 800 shore staff and 400 seafarers serving customers across the offshore energy, offshore wind, tourism and government sectors worldwide.

Our business is supported by a strong balance sheet, modern shipyard infrastructure and an experienced management team committed to high standards of corporate governance, accountability and social responsibility.

We stand for integrity, professionalism and mutual respect.
