Dili Sea Port

[edit]

Brief Overview

[edit]

The Dili Sea Port is the only source for international access to the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste, also known as East Timor. The sea port is located in the capital of Timor-Leste called Dili. The location of this sea port was chosen due to a natural reef along the outside of the port which provides natural protection to the port. Protection of this is nature is crucial for sea ports located in South East Asia during monsoon season. [1]


Structure of Port

[edit]

The Dili Sea Port is relatively small. The current maximum capacity for the Dili Sea Port is 3 vessels, as the port only spans 280 meters. In regard to launching and taking vessels out of the water, two roll-on and roll-off ramps exist in the sea port. One is located on the east end and another is located on the west end. Due to the small nature of the sea port, maritime traffic is common. In addition to sea traffic, the relatively small size of the sea port limits container storage to only 1,000 shipping containers. [2] The main method for loading and unloading the shipping containers is by crane, operated by private companies. Plans to increase the capacity for shipping containers have been created and as of January 2014, construction is underway to create this storage 9 km away.


Concerns surrounding Sea Port

[edit]

Concerns have been raised by the government of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste about the capacity and the maintenance of the sea port. Maintenance of the Dili Sea Port, specifically, has become the main concern. The foundation for the maintenance, management manuals, and routine port checks are non-existent. As of now, personnel numbers and experience, as well as the budget for the seaport are not sufficient. Records of accidents that have occurred at the Dili Sea Port have not been kept. Moving forward, the government has made it a priority to establish record of incidents. [3]

Government officials, especially former Prime Mister of Timor-Leste, Dr. Mari_Alkatiri are also concerned with Global Warmingaffecting the sea levels surrounding the Dili Sea Port. Concerns with climate change causing flooding of much of the island are a top priority for the government. Studies are being conducted to see how much the port will be affected, but information and data is lacking, making it difficult for researchers. [4]

Operations

[edit]

Entrance to the Dili Sea Port as a vessel is currently restricted to specific hours. From 7:30 AM to 5:30 AM vessels are able to enter and exit the sea port. However, the wharves, port gates, and empty containers are left operational 24 hours a day.[5]

Theoretically, the sea port has the capacity to import and export 120,000 TEU/Year. However, concerns that are mentioned likely need to be addressed before this can be achieved. The last records taken in 2012 have 258,782 containers passing in or out of the sea port.[6]

The government of Timor-Leste have began to focus on the improvements of the sea port and plan to have the port be capable of handling 282,816 containers passing in or out. [7]

Dili Sea Port's congestion for berthing container ships has become a severe problem in its current condition. Delays of up to 10 days for commercial container ships are expected and are becoming a widespread problem for the ports efficiency. [8]


Planned Improvements to Dili Sea Port[9]

[edit]

To solve the problems of congestion, the government plans to improve management of cargo ships utilizing the quay-side as loading and de-loading cargo ships takes more time than passenger vessels. The government also plans to increase the space of the shipping container yard to allow for an increase of storage space for containers.

Plans to implement nighttime operation hours for both the general cargo and container areas accomplished by increase coordination of management, port planning, use of sufficient lighting fixtures, extending port gate hours, and restructuring the layout of existing container yard, passenger terminal building, and underutilized warehouses.

The coordination of general cargo and passenger loading, and de-loading also has plans to be addressed. The west end of the Sea Port will become the ferry and passenger area while the east side of the port will be devoted to general cargo and container operations.

Improvements to security are also necessary to improve functionality of the Dili Sea Port. The government plans to construct fencing, CCTV camera systems, security lighting, clocking system, passenger scanner, and various other systems.


Dili Sea Port Progress

[edit]

As of June 2016, the government of Timor-Leste have signed an agreement with Bolloré Group, a French transportation logistics company, to rebuild the Dili Sea Port. From the Timor-Leste government and Bolloré Group's estimation, the congestion of sea vessels was expected to reach critical levels in 2018. The deal is consisting of a 30-year contract worth $490 million. This contract marks the largest investment in Timor-Leste in history. Plans include constructing a new port in Tibar Bay that is capable of processing 350,000 twenty-foot-equivalent units yearly. Details of the new port include a 630-meter wharf, 15-meter draft, and a 29hectare container yard.[10]

In addition to the contract with the Bolloré Group, Timor-Leste contracted with China Harbour Engineering Company to construct the new Dili Sea Port. This contract along with the the contract with the Bolloré Group mark the first Public Private Partnership (PPP) Arrangement for the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste. [11]

Construction of the seaport started on June 14th, 2017 and is set to be completed in the year 2020. Once completed, the Dili Sea Port is projected to make the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste a position of medium-high income by 2030. [12]
