Muatan Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Secara Ship To Ship di Kapal VLGC

VLGC vessel Pertamina Gas 1 is a fully refrigerated type gas vessel
designed to transport LPG in large quantities. LPG consists of butane and
propane which is a gas charge in liquid form. The process of discharge of LPG
cargo on VLGC vessel Pertamina Gas 1 is carried out by ship to ship operation
where VLGC vessel Pertamina Gas 1 as mother ship. Based on the results of
research from the author, the process of loading and unloading on the VLGC
vessel Pertamina Gas 1 experienced delays due to some constraints both from
internal factors and external factors. The purpose of the authors to do this
research is to find out why there is a delay when the process of loading and
unloading and how the effort to handle the delay.
In this thesis the author uses the rules derived from the theory related to
the topic discussed. The research method used by the authors in the delivery of
the problem is SWOT analysis supported by the fishbone diagram, Internal
Strategic Factos Analysis Summary (IFAS) and ExternalStrategic Factors
Analysis Summary (EFAS).
At the time of loading and unloading activities on a ship to ship basis,
there is often an inability to cause delay in loading and unloading process,
such as lack of Deck Rating knowledge about process of loading and
unloading process, Gas Engineer and Gas Man condition is less fit due to
dense schedule of demolition and lack of good coordination between related
parties. From the inability to make efforts to optimize the process of loading
and unloading so that there is no delay in dismantling. These efforts are to
increase the knowledge of Deck Rating by conducting training and guidance
on loading and unloading procedures, duties and responsibilities of each crew,
adequate rest for Gas Engineer and Gas Man and every ship crew should be
independent and not dependent on Gas Engineer and Gas Man as well as
improved coordination among stakeholders.
Key words : LPG, discharging, VLGC.
