Jakarta, INTI - PT Pupuk Kalimantan Timur (Pupuk Kaltim) continues to develop its Special Terminal (Tersus) using the Green and Smart Port concept to improve operational efficiency, accelerate digitalization, and support decarbonization efforts in the logistics sector.
President Director of Pupuk Kaltim, Rafli Yandra, stated that the company's terminal development has adopted the Green Port concept since 2018. Various initiatives have been implemented to support the energy transition while minimizing the environmental impact of port operations.
Environmentally-Friendly Programs
One of the company's focuses is increasing the use of renewable energy in the terminal area and building a clean energy ecosystem within the operational area. Pupuk Kaltim also strengthens environmental aspects through various conservation and biodiversity preservation programs.
The programs include the development of a sambar deer conservation area, coral reef conservation, and the protection of the Black Orchid, an endemic flora that serves as the company's conservation icon. The port operational area also features green open spaces to create a healthier work environment while maintaining the balance of the ecosystem around the industrial area.
Rafli stated that these initiatives support the Safe, Healthy, Clean, and Beautiful (ASRI) Movement to strengthen national logistics competitiveness, particularly in supporting the food sector.
Digitalized Operational Processes
In addition to environmental aspects, Pupuk Kaltim is developing the Smart Port concept through digitalizing business processes and utilizing information technology. One of its innovations is iPortlog, an application that integrates various port operational services.
Through iPortlog, ship service activities can be monitored in real time, from loading and unloading processes and port facility utilization to various operational and shipping performance indicators. The integrated dashboard system also provides quick access to operational data, enabling management to make more effective decisions and improve coordination between work units.
According to Rafli, this system integration helps improve ship service efficiency, accelerate business processes, and make operational activities more transparent. However, digital and operational transformation continues to be carried out with safety and security as a priority.
Going forward, the company is committed to accelerating the Green and Smart Port transformation to support efficiency, decarbonization, and digitalization. Pupuk Kaltim aims for its Special Terminal to not only meet international standards but also contribute to improving national logistics competitiveness and achieving sustainable development targets.
