PENGARUH FLUKTUASI LOADING RATE PADA FLOATING CRANE TERHADAP KINERJA TRANSHIPMENT BATU BARA DI PT PELAYARAN SINAR SHIPPING INDONESIA

Abstract

Pratama, Bagas Arbimo. 2025. "The Effect of Loading Rate Fluctuations on Floating Crane Performance in Coal Transhipment at PT Pelayaran Sinar Shipping Indonesia” Coal transhipment operations via floating cranes at PT Pelayaran Sinar Shipping Indonesia often face inefficiencies due to unstable loading rate fluctuations. This study aims to analyze the effect of loading rate fluctuations on transhipment performance. The research uses a quantitative approach with data collected through questionnaires from 58 respondents selected using the Slovin formula. Data analysis was performed using Pearson correlation and linear regression tests with SPSS 26.0. The results show that loading rate fluctuations significantly affect transhipment performance (r = 0.839; R² = 0.704). The regression equation Y = 9.911 + 0.841X indicates that every 1-unit increase in loading rate improves transhipment performance by 0.841 units. The main factors causing fluctuations are weather conditions such as wind, waves, and uneven cargo distribution, followed by technical disruptions in the floating crane. Based on these findings, it is recommended that the company improve regular weather monitoring, provide technical training, and conduct periodic SOP evaluations to enhance loading rate stability and transshipment efficiency.
