Welcome to Merchant navy & Offshore Services

The Merchant Navy is a non-combatant commercial fleet, which deals with transporting cargo and also passengers, by sea.The merchant navy fleet is therefore composed of passenger vessels, cargo liners, tankers, carriers, as well as other special types of vehicles. A maritime career is full of adventure and long voyages to different countries.

The excellent pay and promising promotional opportunities make the merchant navy (both navigation and marine engineering) career lucrative and exciting in spite of all the hard work life and long absence from family and home.

Merchant Navy is the backbone of international trade, carrying cargo across the globe.

Without the merchant navy, much of the import-export business would grind to a halt. 90% of the world’s cargo is transported through ships and shipping is by far the cheapest and cleanest mode of transportation of goods. It is said that if ships were not there, half the world would die of cold and the remaining half would die of hunger.
