The identification and analysis of risks for civilian ports adapted to military uses

Ports are part of the economic engine of a country, as they play a very important role in the maritime transport chain, either as a node or as a logistics platform. Therefore, they must be protected, maintained, and managed to guarantee their operability. Naval bases, which are generally seaports, are a specific type of port. They are points of support for fleets that contribute in a necessary way to the protection and defense of the territorial waters of a nation and on occasions, to other civil authorities. Even though these ports do not have a purely economic function, their role in national defense makes them critical infrastructures. It is because of this defensive character that military ports are the target of certain threats, such as terrorist attacks.Terrorism has increased considerably over the past years, making it increasingly difficult to predict due to changes in its modus operandi. After 9/11, the world made a formidable effort to prevent this attack from repeating. Among the most outstanding actions in the port sector, the development of the concept of critical infrastructure and the development of the ISPS Code stand out.Nowadays, it can be said that risk management can help to face possible measures against terrorist attacks, as it can determine how to update its current and future infrastructure. The purpose of this article is the divulgation of an investigation, which develops a methodology of risk management to apply in civilian ports adapted to military uses. The proposed methodology tries to simplify the process as much as possible, reducing the steps to be taken, in such a way that risk management becomes simple and functional. Moreover, it tries to exemplify the application of the proposed methodology in a civil port, in Malaga, Spain. The reason behind choosing a civilian port rather than a military port, is due to security reasons, since they must maintain its confidentiality and reserve its information. Finally, the proposed methodology could be applied on different areas, such as coastal management.

THE DOCK ESTABLISHMENT TO SUPPORT MARITIME SECURITY OPERATIONS IN BANGKA BELITUNG

Navy Base of Bangka Belitung is a type B Navy Base under the operation of Main Navy Base III Jakarta. As a base, it has an important role in the series of Integrated Fleet Weapon Systems (Sistem Senjata Armada Terpadu, SSAT). Nave Base of Bangka Belitung has the main task of supporting administration and logistics for operation elements. Besides that, it plays the role of a unit that enforces the law and maintains maritime security, and also plays an active role in empowering the marine defense area. The port is an important facility in supporting the presence of navy elements that can provide a deterrence effect against threats to maritime security. However, the absence of a dock at Bangka Belitung Navy Base will limit the power of the navy element, that is why the process of law enforcement at sea will be carried out optimally with the presence of a dock. The purpose of this study was to analyze the dock establishment to support the navy power in Bangka Belitung Navy Base securing its maritime area. The theories used were sea power theory, maritime security, dock concept, and International Ship and Port Security Code (ISPS Code). This study used the literature review method, primary data obtained through important files related to the object of research and supported by secondary data in the form of books, journals, and documents related to the construction of the Navy Base of Bangka Belitung. The results showed that the dock can improve the performance of Bangka Belitung Navy Base elements in the support function of anchorage facilities, support for ship maintenance and repair facilities as well as support for supply facilities, support for law enforcement, and maintaining maritime security, as well as empowering marine areas

Maritime Security In Coastwise Domestic Shipping As Perceived By Cadets

This study focused on the cadets’ perception of the level of implementation of maritime security in coastwise trade in selected ports of Western Visayas, Philippines, based on the ISPS Code requirements applicable onboard vessels and in port. This study aims to: (1) Determine the level of implementation of domestic companies in terms of the ship security plan or certificate, security drills, control of visitors on board, identification of restricted areas onboard, and security equipment used; (2) Identify the challenges that domestic vessels experience in the implementation of these procedures; and (3) Find out how the cadets are engaged in the process of implementing the requirements in terms of security drills and control of visitors on board and the roles they are tasked to perform. A research-made instrument designed for cadets was used to gather the data. The results revealed that domestic companies’ implementation is heightened during MARSEC Level 2, which happens when there is a heightened level and when security risk has become visible to security personnel. The greatest challenge as perceived by the cadets was specifically on technology advancement, which affects the security and equipment of the domestic vessels. The cadets are engaged in implementing the ISPS code on security drills and control of visitors on board by performing the roles assigned to them by their senior officers. Based on this study’s results, it is recommended that emphasis must be given on topics in maritime security for the students to be equipped with this knowledge during their cadetship program. Training centers may enhance the maritime security training’s effectiveness to include Seafarers with Designated Security Duties, Security Awareness Training, and Ship Security Assessment.

Evaluating the implementation framework of the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code in the Republic of Azerbaijan

In the aftermath of the 9/11/2001 terrorist attacks in the USA via air transport vehicles (airplanes), security vulnerabilities also became a major concern for the shipping industry. Reacting rather quickly, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) streamlined efforts to respond to the need for a new global legal framework that addresses security risks and establishes mitigation measures to enhance security levels within the extended maritime transport system through the introduction of the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code). Security issues became an inseparable part of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) with the incorporation of a new Chapter (XI-2: Special measures to enhance maritime security). The ISPS Code was adopted with the objective of establishing effective international cooperation between contracting governments, governmental agencies, national administrations, shipping companies, and port facilities for identifying, evaluating, and responding to security threats against ships and ports. Azerbaijan’s State Maritime Agency (SMA) is the authorized organization for the implementation of the provisions of SOLAS and the ISPS Code on behalf of the government. The main aim of this research was to evaluate the specific implementation framework of the ISPS Code, including associated regulations and guidelines; it also briefly examined the different security measures within the various port facilities in the Republic of Azerbaijan. This effort was based on 2 different approaches, in which both qualitative and quantitative research techniques were used. Data was collected through interviews with person responsible for the security of ships and the port facilities and from a survey of 115 participants directly involved in maritime security, such as seafarers, port facility guards, and port personnel, as well as visitors. Overall, the implementation of the ISPS Code in Azerbaijan has been successful, and the security level has been maintained at a high level; however, there are some areas in need of improvement.

Facility Security Measures at Ujung Jabung Port a Review in Terms of The International Ship and Port Facility Security Code

Ujung Jabung is a region located in the District of Sadu at Tanjung Jabung Regency, Jambi Province, Indonesia. The area strategically lies in the Indonesian Archipelagic Sea Lane 1 (ALKI 1), which is the international trading and shipping lane. It brings about an excellent opportunity for economic development in Jambi Province. With this in mind, the Government of Jambi develops the region into a strategic area that includes Ujung Jabung Port. Based on the 2011-2031 Region’s Spatial Plan (RTRW) of East Tanjung Jabung Regency, the regency designed it to be the main port with the name of Samudera Ujung Jabung Port. The international shipping routes at the port are Ujung Jabung-West Asia-East Europe and Ujung Jabung-Southeast Asia-East Asia. Due to its international nature, the construction of Samudera Ujung Jabung Port should follow the international measures on the security of the port, shipping, and facility. As a Member of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), Indonesia is subject to international law. It ratifies the United Nations Convention on Safety on Life at Sea (SOLAS) 1974 and the auxiliary instrument of International Ships and Port Facility Code (ISPS Code). Accordingly, the construction of Samudera Ujung Jabung Port should comply with the international safety standard as written in the ISPS Code.

The implementation of ship and port facility security policy based on ISPS code at PT Pelindo II (Cirebon branch)

PurposeThis study aims to formulate the implementation model of Ship and Port Facility Security Policy based on ISPS Code in PT Pelindo II (Cirebon Branch).Design/methodology/approachThe location of the study was the port area of PT Pelindo II (Cirebon Branch). It was because the controlling policy became the duties and responsibilities of each region in which it was the responsibility of PT Pelindo II (Cirebon Branch). However, because of the problem of controlling, it became a common responsibility that could be divided into other institutions such as Navy, Police, Kodim, Satpol PP and leadership apparatus ranging from local to central authorities. Data collection in this study was done by some methods, namely: interview and direct observation. This was done to provide a real and detailed picture of the implementation of Ship and Port Facility Security that is based on ISPS Code to discipline gerandong in PT Pelindo II (Cirebon Branch). The researcher conducted the data collection activity by compiling the document on the field.FindingsShip and Port Facility Security Policy of ISPS Code throughout Indonesia, including PT Pelindo II (Cirebon Branch), has been enacted by Ministry of Transportation since 2004 by the Decree of Minister of Transportation Number 33/2003 on the application of Amendment of SOLAS 1974 on the Ship and Port Facility Security in Indonesian territory (ISPS Code) in top-down way for good port governance that is free from any safety, health and security threats, especially gerandong because of which the implementation of ISPS Code is not working properly. The Ship and Port Facility Security Policy that is based on ISPS Code is a mandate of UN convention and the mandate of the law and order of the Minister of Transportation to conduct the port security, especially in securing the ship and port facility based on ISPS Code so that Cirebon Branch will be a world-class port. The implementation process of ship and port facility security that is based on ISPS Code in PT Pelindo II (Cirebon Branch) does not run optimally, especially in disciplining gerandong because of the lack of the socialization that was done to the target community groups and related makeshift.Originality/valueFrom the results of analysis of several journals that became a reference for this study, there are at least three problems that need special attention, namely, general implementation problems (especially in developing countries), implementations that do not work because of leadership and implementation that cannot run if there is no benchmarking. The researcher is interested in analyzing the problem that has lasted almost for 10 years and has never been resolved until now. Many of the problems behind the phenomenon of gerandong occurred because of the interaction of government (civil society), civil society, Community Empowerment Institutions (LSM), Market (PT Pelindo) and certain community groups as well as the involvement of the apparatus. The most important of all that has been explained above is that in accordance with the feasibility of study (FS), the environmental impacts of the Development Main Plan (RIP) of Cirebon Port and its social impact analysis on the community has not been discussed. Therefore, the FS is expected to be complete and to become plenary and be more feasible to be accepted with this gerandong study.

특수목적영어학습자를 위한 해사영어에 대한 장르기반분석: SOLAS와 MARPOL을 중심으로

Students of Maritime English (ME) encounter some of the principal maritime conventions and codes such as SOLAS, MARPOL, STCW, ISPS code, etc., at one point or another in the course of their studies. Since conventions are primary legal matter, studying the language of conventions can mainly be understanding specific terminologies and some of the peculiar styles of legal documents. The purpose of this study is to investigate linguistic features of two central conventions, namely International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) and International Convention for the Prevention of Marine Pollution from Ships (MARPOL). The ultimate goal of the study is to help the students of ME study the linguistic aspects of conventions easily and thus have a better understanding of them. To this end, the study analyzed the texts of SOLAS and MARPOL from the perspective of genre analysis. It was found that they shared some linguistic features such as the high frequency of obligatory modal, shall, and relative pronoun, which, the passive voice, and compound-complex sentences, all of which are known to be the characteristics of legal documents. They revealed some differences as well. Besides the difference in major registers, “shall + be + past participle + preposition,” “the Noun of (the/this) Noun,” idiomatic words, and multiple-word nouns appeared to be common structures in SOLAS, but occurred much less in MARPOL. Some pedagogical implications are suggested.

Integrating the procedures of reporting port security incidents and the follow-up investigation to build a national maritime security policy: a case study in Mexico

This paper aims to improve port security measures in developing countries via integrating the procedures of incident reporting and the associated follow up investigation, hinging on the Mexican experience. The analysis examined port security at Mexican ports, where stakeholders were interviewed on the subject to identify the challenges and opportunities for security incident reporting, updating of security incident records and facilitation of the follow up investigation. Then, a qualitative security model was developed; under this new framework, incident reporting, incident investigation, the re-assessment of security threats through the Port Facility Security Assessment (PFSA) and the necessary modifications to the Port Facility Security Plans (PFSP) were all integrated. These subjects were all incorporated into a “transparent port security incident reporting tool”. This tool was implemented at all ports in Mexico, where the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code) applies, by the National Maritime Authority. This demonstrated in a real case through “action research”, the improvement of port security framework in the country. Measurements were executed every quarter throughout the year 2017 and the incident-reporting instrument was adjusted accordingly. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in reporting security incidents, with the increase from absolutely nothing (zero) to 57 providing a strong indicator of success. In addition, 56% of those reported maritime incidents were also associated with recommendations to be integrated into the PFSA and respective PFSP. Collecting accurate and immediate information/evidence material while reporting security incidents is crucial for effective incident investigation and continuous improvement of the PFSP.
