JAKARTA - PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) or Pelindo recorded positive performance after last year's merger.

This is reflected in the company's recorded net profit of IDR 3.2 trillion.

This figure is an increase compared to the acquisition in 2020, which amounted to Rp. 3 trillion.

The value of Pelindo's net profit also contributed to the increase in BUMN profits in 2021 which reached a total of IDR 126 trillion, or an increase of 869 percent from 2020 profits.

Pelindo Corporate Secretariat Group Head Ali Mulyono said Pelindo's positive achievement in 2021 was in line with the merger program that was carried out in October 2021, in which the company recorded operating revenues of IDR 28.8 trillion, an increase compared to 2020 operating revenues of IDR 26.6 trillion. .

In addition, Ali said Pelindo also contributed to the state through dividend payments, PNBP, concessions, PPH, PPN and PBB with a total value of IDR 4.7 trillion in the 2021 financial year.

"One of the main focuses of Pelindo after the merger is the operational transformation of the container cluster through standardization and port systemization," said Ali in a written statement, Friday, June 24.

According to Ali, almost eight months after the merger, there has been an increase in performance and productivity in a number of ports.

The increase in loading and unloading productivity is measured by the parameters of boxes per ship per hour (BSH) and the reduction in port stay or the time of docking ships at the port as measured by the number of days.

Ali gave an example, at the Belawan Container Terminal (TPK), the number of loading and unloading has more than doubled from 20 boxes per ship per hour to 45 boxes per ship per hour.

Furthermore, Ali explained, the loading and unloading speed made the docking time of the ship reduced by half, from two days to only one day.

Ali said that the same performance improvement also occurred at the Makassar TPK.

The loading and unloading speed is from 20 BSH to 42 BSH and the docking time can also be reduced from 2 days to 1 day.

In line with TPK Makassar, Makassar New Port Terminal also experienced an increase in loading and unloading speed from 20 BSH to 39 BSH with the standard docking time reduced from 2 to 1 day.

However, Ali said, the best performance improvement was at the Ambon Port Container Terminal.

The increase in the number of loading and unloading has almost tripled, from 12 boxes per ship per hour to 35 boxes.

"As a result, the amount of time for berthing can be reduced from three days to one day," he said.

Ali explained that the shorter docking times and loading and unloading times made operational costs more efficient as reflected in the performance in the first quarter of 2022, with a net profit of IDR 670 billion, an increase of 46 percent compared to the same period the previous year.
