Abstract

AHTS (Anchor Handling Tug Supply) is a ship specifically designed to support the operation of offshore building systems. Supply vessel or AHTS equipped with a towing pin, shark jaw. Towing winch, anchor handling winch, and tugger winch support work activities in the offshore industry (platform or riq). This research aims to analyze the factors that affect towing pin performance, what impacts can occur if the towing pin is not optimal, and the towing pin optimization strategy. The research method used is qualitative. This study uses the SWOT method (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat). The results showed that the factors that caused the towing pin performance were not optimal due to several factors, including not optimal selenoid valve, dirty filters, mud in the towing pin gap, leaks or blocked hydraulic pipes, dirt in hydraulic oil, availability of spare parts, and human resources error. Advice that can be given is to anticipate internal and external factors that affect the performance of the towing pin in order to reduce or avoid the impacts that occur, learn how to handle components related to the towing pin directly and carry out regular and scheduled system maintenance plans for hydraulic components, the towing pin is prone to damage.
