Abstract
Short Sea Shipping (SSS) is one of modes to reduce the dominance of trucking mode of freight transportation in Indonesia. It concerns to multimodal freight transportation network system through sea mode transportation line. As a maritime nation, it is possible to develop SSS lines in Indonesia. The development of the SSS lines is expected to improve the continuity of goods which supporting the efficiency and effectiveness of the national logistics system. It develops integrated connectivity in local, inter-island and national scale. The objective of this study is to obtain optimum SSS route with objective function to maximize the difference of total transportation cost by designing SSS operating system model. Several factors are considered in SSS operating system model as policy measures, such as transit ports selection, tariffs, services, and ship sizes. This SSS model is approached by Incremental Assignment method. SSS operating system model will be applied to the freight mobility in Java.
Highlights
Along with the economic development in a region, the freight transportation modes which dominated by truck are limited in serving the freight flow
One of the efforts to improve logistic performance and the domination of land mode is by giving attention to multimodal freight transportation system, which is developing the shipping lines or Short Sea Shipping (SSS) routes
Several SSS studies on Java Island that have been carried out are Perkasa, L conducted a study on comparative analysis of travel time and SSS tariff with trucks and determined the ship size of the SSS to calculate the tariffs the government must provide to SSS operator in order to operate properly [4]; Wicaksono, G conducted a research related to Ro-Ro Ship route planning with a combination of Ro-Ro ship and truck tariffs on the northern corridor of Java Island that can maximize the shifting volume of truck to Ro-Ro ship by a concern to the operating costs for Ro ship operators.[5]
Summary
Along with the economic development in a region, the freight transportation modes which dominated by truck are limited in serving the freight flow. The freight flow dominated by truck as land mode might cause the traffic issues on roads and ports which impacting high transportation costs. One of the efforts to improve logistic performance and the domination of land mode is by giving attention to multimodal freight transportation system, which is developing the shipping lines or Short Sea Shipping (SSS) routes. Freight transport in Java is using 3 modes of transportation, those are trucks, trains, and ships The freight flow in Java Island is dominated by trucks cause traffic congestion, high roads maintenance costs, and and fuel subsidies especially in the. One of programs planned to improve the continuity of goods flow in promoting the efficiency and effectiveness of the national logistics system performance is the integrated development of local, inter-island, and national connectivity by developing shipping lines and SSS operational [3]. Several SSS studies on Java Island that have been carried out are Perkasa, L conducted a study on comparative analysis of travel time and SSS tariff with trucks and determined the ship size of the SSS to calculate the tariffs the government must provide to SSS operator in order to operate properly [4]; Wicaksono, G conducted a research related to Ro-Ro Ship route planning with a combination of Ro-Ro ship and truck tariffs on the northern corridor of Java Island that can maximize the shifting volume of truck to Ro-Ro ship by a concern to the operating costs for Ro ship operators.[5]
