Implementation of Shipshore Safety Checklist in an Effort to Improve Safety and Pollution Prevention in the Crude Palm Oil Loading Process at TUKS PT Sumber Kencana Inhu

Crude palm oil (CPO) loading operations at TUKS PT Sumber Kencana Inhu still occur spills that pose a threat to cargo safety and environmental pollution. In addition, the Shipshore Safety Checklist (SSCL) has not been implemented as a safety inspection guide before loading. The purpose of this study was to determine the causes of CPO spills and efforts to implement SSCL at TUKS PT Sumber Kencana Inhu to overcome the spills that occurred. This research uses descriptive qualitative method. The sampling technique used purposive sampling. The data analysis technique uses fishbone analysis to identify the causes of spills and uses SWOT analysis to determine the strategic factors for SSCL implementation. The results of this study show that the factors causing CPO spills are human factors with a lack of coordination between the loading master and the chief officer, method factors with a lack of SOPs for checking loading facilities, and material factors with the nature of CPO which is easy to experience a decrease in temperature. In overcoming these spills, it can be done by improving coordination between the loading master and chief officer, implementing detailed loading facility inspection standards, and creating loading procedures. This can be overcome by maximising strengths and taking advantage of opportunities from the implementation of SSCL. The implementation of SSCL can be done by applying the indicators contained in SSCL into the loading operation SOP and translating SSCL into Bahasa Indonesia.
