What we do

One team for the whole move.

From vessel charter to the final metre at the installation point, chartering, engineering, securing, transport and documentation, handled end to end without hand-offs.

Engineering

Transport engineering

Before anything moves, it is engineered. Route surveys and swept-path analysis, lifting and rigging plans, centre-of-gravity calculations, grillage and sea-fastening design, barge stability and ballast calculations, and method statements, verified and signed off by marine warranty surveyors.

Turnkey delivery

Turnkey marine & industrial projects

One contract from origin to running plant. We take a project from the fabrication yard through ocean carriage to installation on its foundation, engineering, charter, transport and setting-to-level, with no hand-offs. Boats moved water-to-water; 4 × 365 MT FOC tanks carried Shanghai to Ras Laffan.

Marine charter

Barge & tug charter services

Flat-top, aggregate and rock barges with tug, on voyage or time charter. For loadouts, anchorage mobilisations and moves where no berth or heavy-lift vessel is available, including full earthmoving fleets worked entirely over the side at anchor.

Heavy lift

Heavy lift & specialised transport

Single lifts up to 264 MT, moved on heavy-lift vessels, crawler cranes and SPMTs. Route surveys, lifting analysis and certified rigging crews carry the load from pre-loadout meeting to final positioning.

Out-of-gauge

Out-of-gauge & project cargo

Cargo beyond every standard limit, up to 8.5 m in diameter. Authority permits, engineering sign-off and specialist vessel booking are in place before a single metre is moved.

Precision moves

Jacking & skidding

Millimetre-precise moves where cranes cannot reach. Synchronised hydraulic rams position plant, generators and tanks in confined, low-headroom spaces, up to complete production-line relocations, extracted and re-set to level.

Freight forwarding

Air, sea and freight.

Alongside the specialist project work, PNI runs full multimodal freight, so a single partner can handle both your production line and the routine shipments that keep it supplied.

Sea

Sea Freight, FCL & LCL

Full-container-load and consolidated LCL ocean freight across every major trade lane, backed by our own break-bulk and project-cargo desks for anything that will not fit a box.

Air

Air Freight

Time-sensitive and high-value cargo moved worldwide, from single AOG parts to full aircraft charter for urgent or oversized consignments.

Road

Land Freight, FCL & LCL

Full and part loads across the UAE and intra-GCC by road, multi-axle, flatbed and low-bed equipment, with route permits and escorts arranged where required.
