Pioneering Integrated Maritime Logistics in Indonesia
Our Company Story
PT Pelayaran Bimasetya Satriaramatara (PBS) is a distinguished Indonesian shipping company established in 2023. PBS commenced business in dedicated Ship Management for dry cargo vessels, particularly supporting the transportation of coal and vital mineral products across Indonesia.
Driven by unwavering commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction, the company achieved a critical operational milestone in mid-2023 by acquiring its own Tug & Barge fleet unit. This strategic expansion empowered PBS to directly manage high-demand upstream coal transhipment and river-to-mother-vessel logistics.
Through ongoing enhancement of service standards and an experienced team of master mariners, commercial brokers, and technical superintendents, PBS prioritizes safety, stringent quality control, and environmental standards to deliver integrated maritime logistics worldwide.
