The main purpose of a cruise is to ensure the safety of the vessel and its
passengers as well as the cargo to the specified destination, especially in tanker.In order
to carry out the safety of the ship is not as easy as avoiding the explosion, fire, or safety
on board. There are some factors that can trigger explosions, fire, life safety and
pollution.
On tankers, specifically for those measuring 20,000 DWT and above must be
equipped with an Inert gas system. The writer provide the formulation of the problem
on how to prevent accidents at the time of operation of Inert Gas System and how to be
able to eliminate HC (Hydrocarbon) or toxic gases in the tank when the ship crew will
do the cleaning tank with the operation of inert gas system. The purpose of this research
is to find out how to prevent accidents at the time of operation of inert gas system and
how to remove HC (Hydrocarbon) or toxic gases inside tank as the ship crew do the
cleaning with operation of inert gas system so that ship crew could clean the tank well
and make no casualties after the cleaning.
Basic theories used as guideline in writing this final project are literatures that has
close relationship about the understanding of the operation of inert gas system, the
prevention act of accident and work safety as well as the introduction and the depiction
of inert gas system equipment in tankers. In this final project, the writer present this
study by using qualitative methodology as a research procedure that produces
descriptive data in the form of written or people's interview and the behaviour that can
be observed. The writer used interview, observation documentation and library research
as a technique of data collection
Based on the discussion of the problem and the formulation of the problem, so the
writer can conclude that on the operation of inert gas system for the prevention of
occupational injuries such as errors in operating, damage to components of inert gas
components, lack of inert gas tank inflow so that there may be delays in loading and
unloading loading and tank cleanning and can even lead to explosions, fire and life
safety.
