Inert gas system is a low-oxygen-containing gas that is used to set the
atmosphere in the tank and unloading, which prevents the formation of a
combustible mixture, the resulting flue gas boiler pushed into the tank to suppress
maximal oxygen in the tank is below 8%. Not optimal operation of the inert gas
system can hinder cargo handling crude oil, because it is then the need for quick
action so that operations run optimally and the maximum is to carry out training,
job evaluation, familiarization and the correct operation of the appropriate
instruction manual book. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact that
would occur if the inert gas system is not optimal, and to know how to optimize
the inert gas system of cargo handling crude oil in MT. Jag Leela.
Research using SWOT analysis. In this case the author using the method of
SWOT analysis. Where this method is a systematic way to determine the factors
and strategies that best describe the match. This analysis is based on the
assumption maximize the strengths and minimize the weaknesses and the
opportunities and threats to determine the direction of the right strategy in
achieving optimal operational.
The results showed that, as a result of the inert gas system is not optimal,
namely, fires and explosions in the tank and unloading, cargo handling processes
crude oil inhibited. To anticipate this action it must be done so that the system is
running optimally, namely, implementing familiarization inert gas and the
operating system is based on manual book.
