Abstract

Keselamatan pelayaran merupakan aspek penting dalam operasional kapal untuk menjamin keamanan awak kapal, penumpang, muatan, dan lingkungan laut. Salah satu upaya peningkatan keselamatan di atas kapal dilakukan melalui pelaksanaan latihan keselamatan (safety drill) secara rutin guna meningkatkan kesiapsiagaan awak kapal dalam menghadapi keadaan darurat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kendala dalam pelaksanaan latihan keselamatan di KM. Sabuk Nusantara 98 serta upaya yang dilakukan untuk mengoptimalkan pelaksanaannya. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif melalui observasi, wawancara, dokumentasi, dan studi kepustakaan selama praktik laut (prala). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan latihan keselamatan di atas kapal belum berjalan optimal akibat rendahnya disiplin dan kesadaran awak kapal, kurangnya pemahaman terhadap tugas saat keadaan darurat, lemahnya koordinasi antar awak kapal, serta keterbatasan waktu pelaksanaan latihan. Selain itu, kondisi alat keselamatan yang belum mendapatkan pemeriksaan dan perawatan rutin turut memengaruhi efektivitas pelaksanaan safety drill. Upaya yang dilakukan untuk meningkatkan pelaksanaan latihan keselamatan meliputi pelaksanaan latihan secara rutin sesuai prosedur, peningkatan koordinasi dan disiplin awak kapal, pemberian pengarahan sebelum latihan, serta pemeriksaan dan perawatan alat keselamatan secara berkala. Dengan pelaksanaan latihan keselamatan yang baik, kesiapsiagaan awak kapal dalam menghadapi keadaan darurat diharapkan dapat meningkat sehingga keselamatan pelayaran dapat lebih terjamin.

Abstract

Background: Wing-in-Ground-effect (WIG) craft generate lift by operating at the air–water interface, enabling a unique mode of very high-speed maritime transport that is particularly suited to the highly complex nature of coastal and archipelagic regions. However, their distinctive operating characteristics high speed and low altitude present significant safety issues that require advanced navigation and communication systems. Objective: This paper investigates navigation and communication systems associated with the safety of WIG craft under relevant international maritime rules (International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea SOLAS; IMO Guidelines for Wing-in-Ground Craft (MSC.1/Circ.1592). Methods: A qualitative regulatory analysis and R&D methodology is used to analyze the alignment of international standards with WIG operational requirements, as well as to examine barriers to the implementation of domestic maritime systems. Results: In the marine context, this study identifies major navigational technologies such as GNSS, radar, AIS, and integrated bridge systems for navigational awareness and collision avoidance. The integration of GMDSS communications and satellite-based technologies is indispensable for enabling coherent coordination and emergency response operations. SOLAS provisions do not fully satisfy all WIG operational requirements, while the application of IMO guidelines may result in disparate standards across jurisdictions. Conclusion: A harmonized and risk-based navigation and communication safety framework is proposed, integrating SOLAS provisions and IMO WIG Guidelines to address identified regulatory gaps. The framework aims to promote regulatory consistency and support the safe integration of WIG craft into national and international maritime transport systems.

Abstract

The development of simulation technology has become a crucial element in modern maritime education. This study aims to examine the effect of training simulator and the availability of bridge simulator equipment on the competence of Nautical cadets at Sorong Merchant Marine Polytechnic prior to sea practice. A quantitative approach with multiple linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between the independent variables (training simulator and bridge simulator) and the dependent variable (cadet competence). Data were collected from 26 cadets through structured questionnaires using purposive sampling. The results indicate that both variables significantly affect cadet competence, with the bridge simulator having a more dominant impact. The regression model yielded a high coefficient of determination (R² = 0.998), meaning that 99.8% of the variance in cadet competence is explained by the two predictors. These findings reinforce the critical role of simulation-based training, especially bridge simulators, in developing technical skills, navigation ability, situational awareness, and decision-making. The study supports the IMO-STCW framework, which mandates simulation in maritime certification. As a result, maritime education institutions are recommended to strengthen investment in training and bridge simulator facilities and integrate simulation-based methods into the curriculum to improve graduate competence and global competitiveness.

Abstract

Background: The Fresh Water Generator (FWG) is a critical shipboard system that produces potable and technical fresh water from seawater via vacuum evaporation, utilizing waste heat from the main engine jacket cooling water circuit.  The FWG is susceptible to operational disruptions including heat exchanger fouling, mineral scaling, vacuum system failures, thermal efficiency reduction, and salinity monitoring errors. Objective: This study investigates these operational challenges and the maintenance strategies employed to address them, based on the direct professional experience of marine engineers employed by Anthony Veder Rederijzaken, a Rotterdam-based LNG shipping company. Methods: A qualitative case study methodology was adopted, using semi-structured interviews with five marine engineers at the rank of Second and Third Engineer. Five respondents were sufficient because thematic data saturation was reached, with no new themes emerging from the final interviews. Interview data were analyzed manually through thematic analysis, supported by technical document review and structured literature comparison. Results: Five operational challenge themes were identified: biofouling and physical fouling of plate heat exchangers; mineral scaling from calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide precipitation; vacuum system degradation from air ingress; reduced thermal efficiency under variable engine load; and salinity monitoring system failures. Corresponding maintenance strategies include scheduled chemical descaling, vacuum integrity checks, routine performance monitoring, pump and ejector overhauls, and weekly salinometer calibration. These findings contribute a practitioner-grounded, route-adaptive framework for condition-based maintenance practice. Conclusion:  The findings offer evidence-based recommendations that advance maintenance management in maritime engineering and provide empirical material for strengthening maritime education curricula.
