Port Facility Security Assessment in Indonesian Port

Abstract

The Bitung Special Economic Zone (SEZ) development is currently being developed. Of course, supporting facilities are needed in the form of physical infrastructure. For example, the Bitung Container Port (TPK Bitung) is currently separated from the Bitung Public Port. Future developments will also be separated from the traditional and ferry ports. The separation of this port is a synergy between the Central and Regional Governments. In connection with the separation of Bitung TPK with Bitung Public Port, a Port Facility Security Assessment is required to identify possible weaknesses/deficiencies in the Port Facility Security section and the possibility to reduce or mitigate those weaknesses/shortages. The Port Facility Security Assessment must meet the requirements set by IMO as required in ISPS Code Part.A.15. The approach used in conducting this study is identical to the methodology commonly used in security assessments. Especially concerning the ISPS Code, related to the ISPS Code, the standard methodologies commonly used in each country are as follows: Pre-Assessment, Security Survey at the port location, Mitigation Strategy; The results of research conducted by combining elements of consequences, threats/scenarios, physical and non-physical security vulnerabilities. The security system at Bitung Container Terminal that is currently running is good. Physical security facilities already exist, security personnel already exist, security and procedures exist. However, what must be fulfilled by managers and other related parties related to the operation of Port Facilities to meet the conditions as required in the ISPS Code are IMO Course 3.24 (Security Officer) Training.
