THE SHORT ANSWER
Can oil and gas equipment move by cargo charter?
Some oil and gas equipment can be considered for cargo charter, subject to packed dimensions, weight, handling and cargo acceptance. Declare residues, batteries, gas and chemicals. The independent operator must confirm suitability and any special approvals; offshore delivery is a separate arrangement.
Give the equipment a precise description.
A valve assembly, pump or survey component needs more than a project name. Share the intended use, packed-piece list and whether it is new or used. Identify unusual lifting and orientation requirements.
Do not upload confidential drawings, security instructions or hazardous-material documents through the initial enquiry. The team can agree an appropriate information exchange if the request progresses.
A shore-base deadline is not an offshore delivery promise.
Port Harcourt–Onne, Warri and the Tema–Takoradi corridor provide relevant planning contexts for port-linked equipment requests. The actual receiving base, warehouse or contractor location must be named separately.
An onward helicopter, boat or offshore transfer is not included in an air cargo charter request. Specialist providers must assess that leg, access arrangements and acceptance independently.
Make responsibilities visible before approval.
Ask who arranges packing, export and import clearance, aircraft loading, arrival handling and ground transport. Confirm whether any proposed insurance covers the cargo and under which terms; do not assume carrier liability equals the declared value.
Urgency does not establish safe carriage or operating permission. RentJet acts as a broker, with aircraft and movement feasibility confirmed by the independent operator and other responsible providers.
Your cargo charter checklist
- Plain-language cargo description and intended use.
- Total packed weight in kilograms, number of pieces and dimensions of every packed piece.
- Collection location, intended destination and who handles each ground leg.
- Ready-to-collect date and the real delivery deadline, with local time zones.
- Stackability, lifting needs and any batteries, fluids, gas, chemicals or temperature requirements.
- Shipper, consignee and forwarder roles; document and customs readiness.
Frequently asked questions
Does sending an enquiry book a cargo aircraft?
No. It starts a sourcing discussion. The operator must accept the cargo and confirm aircraft suitability, permissions, availability, price and terms before a booking can be agreed.
Is customs clearance included?
Do not assume it is. The proposal must identify who arranges export and import clearance, handling, storage and onward delivery, and which charges are included.
Can RentJet transport dangerous goods?
Declare any potential dangerous goods at enquiry stage. Acceptance is subject to specialist review and an appropriately authorised operator. This website does not classify goods, approve packaging or authorise carriage.

Prepare a cargo charter sourcing enquiry. No account or payment is required. Use a non-sensitive summary; leave documents, confidential drawings, payment details and site-security information out of this form.
This is an enquiry, not a confirmed flight or delivery guarantee. Independent operators confirm aircraft, cargo acceptance, permissions, availability, price and terms. Customs, packing, insurance and onward transport require clearly agreed responsibilities.
