Oil production rising rapidly from oil fields, refineries and depots - oil depot in Indonesia. It makes participation of oil tankers becomes more vital than ever. Loading and discharging equipment on the tanker must always be in good condition in order to support the process of loading and discharging. Optimization of loading and discharging must be supported by good communication between the ship at the loading or discharging port. This research is focused on the process of loading and discharging at MT. Patra Tanker 3 which is frequently delays due to human factors and factors of equipment and efforts to optimize the loading and discharging activities. The research methodology that author use is a descriptive qualitative method. The author presents the data according to the results of the observation as authors did the sea project, interviews with the officers of MT. Patra Tanker 3 and literature study that the author obtained from books, internet and literature relating to loading and discharging process of oil product. Based on the research that the author carried out, it can be seen that the constraints that occur when loading and discharging process in MT. Patra Tanker 3 are the lack of understanding, knowledge and awareness of the crew about the dangers and how the loading and unloading procedures in accordance with the standards as well as safe. In addition the process of loading and discharging at MT. Patra Tanker 3 are constrained by a cargo pump is not functioning optimally. From these problems, it’s necessary to give the entire crew training regarding the loading and discharging process in accordance with the procedures and also the operation of loading and discharging equipment is right and how to taking care of the loading and discharging equipment. Besides, the ship’s crew also had to check periodically for loading and discharging equipment.
