A detachable floating dock structure was used for transportation, specially designed by the Nevsky Design Bureau of USC for the KSP01 series of fishing vessels.

The construction of "Kildin" is carried out according to the principle of a "distributed shipyard": the hull and main works were carried out at the plant in Nizhny Novgorod, after which the vessel, accompanied by two tugs, headed to St. Petersburg for completion of construction and testing.
