Greetings to our esteemed ship owners and maritime partners! 

We extend our sincere gratitude to PT. BAHARI SEGARA MARITIM for entrusting us with the agency handling of your bulk barge transhipment operations. This article details the successful completion of a recent project involving the transhipment of coal from barges to the MV. AFKAR using the tugboat TB. MOMENTUM 03 and barge BG. MOMENTUM 3003 at the challenging Ship-to-Ship (STS) Muara Jawa area. Our expertise in transhipment handling ensured a seamless and efficient operation, demonstrating our commitment to reliable and specialized maritime solutions.


Project Overview: Navigating the Complexities of Muara Jawa

The Muara Jawa region, renowned for its dynamic maritime activity, presents unique logistical challenges. The successful transhipment of coal from barges to ocean-going vessels requires meticulous planning and execution. This project involved the transfer of a substantial volume of coal, demanding precision and adherence to strict safety protocols. Our agency, specializing in transhipment handling, was tasked with ensuring the smooth flow of operations, minimizing downtime, and maximizing efficiency.


Phase 1: Pre-Operational Planning and Coordination
  • Detailed Site Assessment: Our experienced team conducted a thorough assessment of the Muara Jawa transhipment area, analyzing tidal patterns, water depths, and potential navigational hazards. This assessment informed the development of a comprehensive operational plan.
  • Vessel Coordination and Documentation: We managed all aspects of vessel coordination, including arrival scheduling, berthing arrangements, and documentation processing. This ensured a streamlined process for both the MV. AFKAR and the TB. MOMENTUM 03/BG. MOMENTUM 3003 convoy.
  • Permitting and Regulatory Compliance: We handled all necessary permitting and regulatory compliance, ensuring adherence to local and international maritime regulations. This proactive approach minimized potential delays and ensured a smooth operational flow.


Phase 2: Executing the Transhipment Operation
  • Precise Tug and Barge Maneuvering: The TB. MOMENTUM 03 and BG. MOMENTUM 3003, under the guidance of our expert team, executed precise maneuvering to position the barge alongside the MV. AFKAR. This critical step required exceptional skill and coordination, particularly in the challenging conditions of the Muara Jawa area.
  • Efficient Cargo Transfer: Our team oversaw the efficient transfer of coal from the barge to the MV. AFKAR, employing optimized loading procedures and equipment. We prioritized safety and efficiency, ensuring minimal cargo loss and timely completion of the transhipment.
  • Real-Time Monitoring and Communication: Throughout the operation, we maintained real-time monitoring of all activities, ensuring constant communication between all stakeholders. This proactive approach allowed us to address any potential issues promptly and maintain operational efficiency.


Phase 3: Post-Operational Procedures and Reporting
  • Cargo Verification and Documentation: Following the completion of the transhipment, we conducted thorough cargo verification and documentation, ensuring accurate records and compliance with contractual obligations.
  • Vessel Departure Coordination: We managed the departure coordination for the MV. AFKAR, ensuring a smooth and timely departure from the transhipment area.
  • Comprehensive Reporting: We provided our clients with comprehensive reports detailing the entire transhipment operation, including operational data, performance metrics, and any relevant observations. This transparency and accountability are core to our service delivery.
