Jakarta, 5 November 2024 - PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) or Pelindo recorded operating revenue until the third quarter of 2024 of Rp23.5 trillion, up 4% year on year (yoy).

Pelindo President Director Arif Suhartono said that the achievement was in line with the operational performance that grew positively in all Pelindo Group business lines until the end of the third quarter of 2024.

‘The increase in operational performance in all Pelindo business segments shows that the standardisation and operational digitalisation efforts that Pelindo has implemented have successfully served the increase in the flow of goods that occurred. This standardisation is certainly carried out in an integrated manner with stakeholders and service users which has an impact on reducing port stays at the port,’ Arif said.

The total flow of non-containerised goods reached 146 million tonnes in the third quarter of 2024, growing 16% compared to the same period last year. Total container flows also grew by 7% to 13.8 million TEUs.

The achievement of positive and consistent performance during the three years of merger received appreciation from the Assistant Deputy for Logistics Services of the Ministry of SOEs, Desty Arlaini.

‘We appreciate the hard work that Pelindo has done in recent years. Pelindo has been very consistent in doing what is written in the merger study, both initiatives and quick wins. Standardisation of operations, digitalisation, as well as integration and optimisation are all carried out consistently,’ said Desty.

In addition, Pelindo also recorded an increase in ship and passenger flows. The ship flow increased by 11% or 1.04 billion GT. The same thing happened to passenger flows, which also increased by 9% or as many as 14.7 million people in the same period last year.

‘This positive achievement does not necessarily make us complacent. The uncertain external situation encourages Pelindo to remain focused on maintaining this growth momentum until the end of 2024,’ concluded Arif.
