The international fishing industry continues to provide employment opportunities for Indonesian seafarers, particularly those who are prepared to work in a professional and disciplined maritime environment. In September 2026, 140 Indonesian crew members are scheduled to depart for China to begin their assignments on net fishing vessels and Peru squid fishing vessels.
This deployment represents another opportunity for Indonesian crew members to gain international work experience while contributing to the growing demand for qualified fishing vessel crew in the global maritime industry.
140 Indonesian Crew Members Ready for International Assignments
The deployment of 140 Indonesian crew members to China is part of the international crew placement activities facilitated by PT RNT Utama Indonesia. The selected crew members will work on vessels involved in net fishing and Peru squid fishing operations.
Working on international fishing vessels requires more than physical readiness. Crew members must be prepared to adapt to different working environments, follow vessel procedures, maintain discipline, and work effectively as part of a multicultural crew.
For Indonesian seafarers, opportunities like this can also become an important step in developing international maritime experience and building a professional career in the fishing industry.
Preparation Before Departure Is an Important Stage
Before departing for their overseas assignments, crew members need to go through various preparation and briefing activities. This stage is important to ensure that every crew member understands their responsibilities and is ready to face the working environment onboard.
Preparation may include administrative checks, document readiness, briefings regarding the employment assignment, and other information related to their departure and work placement.
Beyond administrative requirements, crew members also need to prepare themselves mentally and physically. Working at sea can require crew members to spend extended periods away from their families and adapt to demanding working conditions.
Therefore, proper preparation before departure plays an important role in helping crew members begin their assignments with greater confidence and readiness.
PT RNT Utama Indonesia Supports the Crew Placement Process
As a crew manning and recruitment company, PT RNT Utama Indonesia supports the process of preparing Indonesian crew members for international employment opportunities.
The process involves recruitment, candidate selection, administrative preparation, coordination, briefing, and deployment according to the requirements of the overseas partner and vessel.
For every placement, matching the right crew member with the appropriate employment opportunity is an important part of maintaining service quality and supporting successful deployment.
Through a structured recruitment and placement process, PT RNT Utama Indonesia continues to connect qualified Indonesian crew members with international employment opportunities in the maritime and fishing industries.
Representing Indonesian Maritime Workforce in the Global Market
Every Indonesian crew member working overseas carries an important role—not only as an individual worker, but also as part of Indonesia’s maritime workforce.
Professionalism, discipline, responsibility, and good performance onboard can help strengthen the reputation of Indonesian crew members in the international market.
The successful deployment of 140 crew members to China in September 2026 is therefore more than just a crew placement activity. It is also part of the broader effort to expand opportunities for Indonesian seafarers and strengthen Indonesia’s position as a source of qualified maritime manpower for the global fishing industry.
Building Sustainable International Crew Placement
The international maritime industry requires a consistent supply of crew members who are ready to work, adaptable, and capable of meeting the expectations of vessel operators and overseas partners.
PT RNT Utama Indonesia is committed to supporting this need by continuing to develop a professional recruitment and crew placement process for Indonesian seafarers seeking international employment opportunities.
With proper preparation, professional recruitment, and effective coordination, Indonesian crew members can be better prepared to compete and build their careers in the global maritime industry.
