This study aims to analyze the suboptimal performance of hydraulic pump system on hatch cover performance on MV. Emerald Indah using USG (Urgency, Seriousness, Growth) method and data collection techniques in the form of observation, documents, and interview. The purpose of this study is to determine the causes, effect and efforts in solving the problems discussed. The results of the study indicate that several factors cause the hydraulic pump system to not function optimally , including dirty filters, leak in the hydraulic pump and pipe, and operation that is not in accordance with procedures. The effect of the suboptimal hydraulic pressure which ultimately becomes the main problem that inhibits the hatch cover opening process. To overcome this problem, improvements are needed such as periodic filter cleaning, replacement of leaking components, and increasing crew understanding of operational procedures. This research is expected to provide insight for related parties in improving the performanceof the hydraulic pump system and the efficiency of the loading and unloading process on ships.

This research discusses the urgency of mastering English in the recruitment process of prospective sailors at PT. Equinox Bahari Utama. In the era of globalization and the international maritime industry, proficiency in English has become an absolute requirement for sailors to meet communication standards on board. The objectives of this research are: (1) to determine the recruitment criteria standards for prospective sailors at PT. Equinox Bahari Utama, and (2) to understand the strategies of prospective sailors in mastering English for successful recruitment at PT. Equinox Bahari Utama. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation during field practice in the Recruitment Division of PT. Equinox Bahari Utama. The research results show that English is a determining factor in all stages of the selection process, from interviews to online tests (Marlins and CES). The SWOT analysis reveals that the company's main strength is the implementation of high standards for English proficiency, but challenges remain in the form of a lack of training. The strategies used by prospective sailors to improve their English proficiency include courses, reading ship safety manuals, speaking practice, and interview simulations.

Loading and unloading activities are activities carried out on land, sea and air (Permenhub). In the field of loading and unloading, one of the loading and unloading companies will be observed, namely the company PT. Berlian Manyar Sejahtera plays a big role in supporting the needs of loading and unloading activities for handling clinker dry bulk cargo. One of the tools that supports clinker dry bulk loading activities is by using a bucket. A bucket is a tool that can support clinker dry bulk loading activities. where this tool functions to transport dry bulk clinker to the truck properly. The research method used is the Quantitative Method which explains Bucket Efficiency in dry bulk clinker loading activities at PT Berlian Manyar Sejahtera. Data collection techniques through observation, documentation, interviews and questionnaires. The results of this research show that buckets are more efficient than using grabs because in the dry bulk loading process the clinker bucket has a target which can be realized according to the target, whereas for grabs the target and income are bigger but cannot be realized properly according to the target. The advice given is to prepare supporting equipment such as grabs and well-maintained buckets because this can support clinker dry bulk loading activities and additional loading and unloading workers are needed so that the clinker dry bulk loading process will be more efficient and faster.

Indonesia is a country located in a strategic area, this makes the shipping sector in Indonesia a very important means of transportation and carrier in the world of international trade and transportation, making loading and unloading services mostly carried out in Indonesia. Therefore, the author conducted research to find out the process of unloading soda ash cargo at JIIPE Port and to find out the causes of short cargo occurring in soda ash cargo at JIIPE Port. This research was carried out with the aim of finding out the process of unloading soda ash at JIIPE port, then to find out the causes of short cargo in the performance of soda ash unloading at JIIPE port. In conducting this research the author used qualitative research methods with techniques in the form of conducting observations, interviews with the staff concerned, and carrying out documentation. From the results of observations, interviews and documentation of findings that the author obtained when conducting research, namely that there was a leak of soda ash cargo in the unloading equipment during soda ash unloading activities at JIIPE port which caused the soda ash cargo to become short cargo from the predetermined manifest. By implementing correct operational standards and using appropriate tools, it is hoped that the process of unloading soda ash can be improved and can minimize short cargo incidents when unloading soda ash. It is hoped that the results of this research will provide insight for loading and unloading companies to reduce losses due to short cargo and can also optimize logistics services at the Java Integrated Industrial and Port Estate port.
