This page explores the additional concerns or considerations for conducting Planetary Industry (PI) in Null Security ([[System_security#Null_security|Nullsec]]) space. Guidance presented here is generally valid for other areas of dangerous space, such as High Security (Highsec) space in [[Planetary_Industry#Planetary_Industry_During_War_.28Uni_only.21.29|wartime]] or Wormholes, though profitability and tactics will vary by region of space.

* '''Other T1 Haulers'''. It is strongly recommended that pilots do '''not''' use other [[Industrials|T1 haulers]] for regular PI activity. If there is a recurring need to haul extracted resources or final products to or from planets, then the character should be flying an Epithal.

* '''T2 Haulers'''. Again, pilots new to Nullsec or PI in Nullsec are urged to stick with the Epithal. However, at a pilot's discretion, a [[Industrials#Transport_ship|Deep Space Transport]] might make sense for moving large quantities of extremely valuable product between systems - though multiple smaller shipments in a Epithal would be preferred.

* '''Freighters'''. The safest way to move large quantities of goods out of Nullsec is in a [[Jump_Freighters|Jump Freighter]]. This is not recommended for the average player, given the enormous skill, time, and investment required. EVE University's NSC often offers a [https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=293&t=121063 shipping service], which members should seek to use.

* '''Any racial shuttle'''. [[Shuttles]] are passively immune to [[Interdictors|bubbles]] and have a rapid time-to-warp. As some PI activities (importing or exporting from POCOs, for example) involve being present in space and in the same system, a shuttle is a viable option for moving between systems with minimal risk.
