Abstract

Legal regulations regarding the implementation of Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) and Automatic Identification System (AIS) devices to ensure shipping safety in Indonesia are contained in the Minister of Transportation Regulation (Permenhub) Number 18 of 2022 concerning Automatic Identification Systems for Ships Conducting Activities in Indonesian Waters. This regulation replaces the previous regulation and requires vessels navigating in Indonesian waters (both national and foreign) to install and activate AIS. Obstacles encountered in implementing the Vessel Traffic Service System and Automatic Identification System devices in the Benoa Class II Type A Navigation District include non-technical obstacles in the form of operational and maintenance issues, such as aging equipment and high maintenance costs. Furthermore, there are technical obstacles related to the integration of disparate systems, as well as challenges in providing and maintaining the necessary hardware and software.
