Hi!

But the damage goes up with the number of engines, so is it realy good to use a 4 engine ship in case of minefields?

As you've already seen the answer is no. The minimum damage done to fleet is 500 (600) PER ENGINE. Two BBs would still get the same 2000 damage. But if you'd accompany that BB with a single chaff then the damage done to a fleet would be much lower. Chaff would die, but BB would be much less damaged.
The exact minehit damage formula can be found at starsFAQ: http://www.starsfaq.com/minefield.htm
