The design process for 'Dana V' started on May 1, 2023 and is scheduled to be completed in early 2024.
The responsible entities for the design are Dansk Dana Konsortium (DDK) which consists of Odense Maritime Technology (OMT) and Knud E. Hansen (KEH).
According to Michael Sears, senior naval architect at KEH, the two naval engineering companies have divided the roles between themselves.
