Port Management Model in the Industrial Revolution 4.0 Era

Abstract

Sedimentation is a natural and physical phenomenon that affects port management. If it is further elaborated, the main aspects of port management include planning, design, construction, and maintenance activities.  Sedimentation can cause a decrease of depth or silting in navigation channels and port pools which to some extent, are dangerous for the inbound vessels that are calling at the port. The silting process is influenced by how much material and what type of material that settles at the base of the water column. To understand the effect of sedimentation on port management, a comparative study was conducted between the terms of port management which are stated in the regulations that apply in Indonesia and the implementation that has been carried out. realized at  patimban port. The data that is compared takes the form of planning data and existing conditions in 2020 to then be reviewed with current regulations to assess its compliance with the said regulation.  In order to devise technical recommendations in spatial and temporal aspects, the port authorities must have a thorough understanding of the effect of sedimentation on port management. In its implementation, spatial aspects are related to the maintenance of navigation channels and anchoring locations, while temporal aspects are related to the frequency of monitoring of the sediment deposition  and  sediment removal to keep the navigation channels safe for calling vessels. The monitoring process must be done in a routine and timely manner, by integrating temporal change data with Industrial Revolution 4.0-based technologies to increase the rate of data renwals, so that the manager of the port can respond to any changes that occur in the port accordingly and effectively in a short period of time.
