Indonesia to Decarbonize its Shipping

  • The Indonesian Government through the Coordinating Ministry for Maritime Affairs and Investment ("Ministry") is closely monitoring efforts to transition to the use of zero-carbon fuel in relation to various shipping activities and to ensure the readiness of Indonesia’s strategic ports as regards their planned transformation into green ports.
  • According to the Coordinating Deputy for Maritime Sovereignty and Energy, Mr. Marves Basilio Dias Arujo, Indonesia’s national oil company, Pertamina, has already commenced production of Low Sulfur Marine Fuel Oil ("LS MFO") in order to power its national fleet. Furthermore, Indonesia has begun to provide LS MFO to international shipping in the wake of an official launch at one of the bulk cargo ports at Krakatau International Port in August 2021. Pertamina is also currently preparing four LS MFO terminals in the Malacca Strait in order to serve international fleets.
  • At the national level, Indonesia is also now in the process of introducing the new Business 20 (B20) and Business 30 (B30) for land and air transportation.  This comes against a background of Indonesia updating its Nationally Determined Contributions ("NDC") in July 2021 as a commitment to reducing carbon emissions. In terms of plans to decarbonize its shipping, Indonesia currently has 39,510 cargo vessels and 171,754 fishing vessels registered within its national database. Despite most of Indonesia’s cargo ships and fishing vessels being comparatively small in size, NDC Indonesia has recorded a 19% contribution to national CO2 emissions from shipping within the country.
  • Regardless of the millions of tons or even gigatonnes of carbon emissions being produced by shipping within Indonesian waters, Mr. Basilio has stated that Indonesia, as the country with the third-longest coastline in the world, is nevertheless working hard to reduce its carbon footprint.
  • The program will specifically address fishermen in possession of fishing vessels of 7,812 metric tons. The government is also now installing rooftop solar panels across all of the country’s ports in order to provide green energy. Through these various efforts, Mr. Basilio believes that Indonesia will be able to realize its commitment. Nevertheless, collective action, cooperation and collaboration will be required from all stakeholders operating within the domestic maritime and energy sector, as well as from international organizations such as the International Maritime Organization, UNCTAD and the World Bank.
