PHS Marine, formally operating as Pandu Harta Samudera, is a maritime support and logistics company headquartered in Jakarta, Indonesia. Situated in the Warakas district near the major port of Tanjung Priok, the company functions as a comprehensive ship chandler and service provider, catering to the operational needs of merchant vessels trading throughout the Indonesian archipelago. The company serves as a logistical bridge for ship owners and managers, ensuring that vessels calling at Indonesian ports can access essential supplies, technical maintenance, and regulatory compliance services.
The core of the company’s operations revolves around ship chandling, where it acts as a primary source for deck and engine stores. PHS Marine procures and delivers a wide range of hardware, tools, and spare parts necessary for daily shipboard maintenance. A significant component of this supply division is its role as an authorized representative for specialized marine chemical manufacturers. The company distributes marine chemicals used for critical tasks such as cargo hold cleaning, boiler water treatment, and general sanitation, alongside supplying various refrigerants to support vessel HVAC and refrigeration systems.
Beyond the supply of goods, PHS Marine executes specialized technical services focused on vessel performance and maintenance. The company conducts underwater operations, deploying trained divers to perform hull cleaning and propeller polishing. These services are designed to remove biofouling, which assists vessels in maintaining fuel efficiency and reducing drag. The underwater division also carries out hull surveys and thickness measurements, providing operators with detailed reports on the structural condition of the vessel without the immediate need for dry-docking.
The company also addresses environmental and safety requirements within the region. It offers sludge oil disposal services, facilitating the removal of oily waste in accordance with local environmental licenses and regulations. Additionally, the company provides annual servicing and supply of marine safety equipment, ensuring that life-saving appliances and firefighting systems meet operational standards. PHS Marine maintains a broad service network across Indonesia, extending its support beyond Jakarta to numerous ports including Semarang, Cilacap, Merak, Batam, and Makassar, thereby covering key transit routes and industrial hubs across the region.
