Cikarang Dry Port (CDP) is a dry portinKota JababekaatCikarang, West Java, Indonesia. With a total area of 200 hectares, CDP was founded in 2010. It is operated as Indonesia's first and only Integrated Customs Services Zone by PT Cikarang Inland Port, a division of the publicly traded PT Jababeka Tbk. As an inland dry port model, CDP acts as a port extension, that addresses ongoing traffic jams and delays at Tanjung Priok, a significant import/export gateway. The primary goal is to reduce the dwelling time from 3.2 days to the government-mandated 2.5 days.
To optimize its operations, the government involves CDP in order to expedite the 2.5-day dwelling time. Its design integrates with Tanjung Priok. The idea is that CDP handles the next step, port clearance, after Tanjung Priok has finished all loading and unloading operations. A freight train will transport containers from the seaport to CDP for administration, quarantine, and inspection in order to expedite the process. A similar procedure can also be used for export. Up to 8 million TEUs can be handled annually at the port because of Tanjung Priok and CDP's integration. Productivity is a critical factor in the development of an industrial business, and is facilitated by the coordination and synchronization of the entire supply chain through CDP. The CDP has a capacity of 250,000 TEUs.
The government is aware that reducing traffic between ports and industrial estates, is another additional value that CDP can provide. Integrating CDP with Tanjung Priok could result in a 30% decrease in traffic congestion. The fuel consumption efficiency that results from this contribution is estimated to be worth 190 billion rupiahs annually.
The government provides access to toll roads and the railway system to support the CDP. Furthermore, new CDP access is presently in development. Inland waterways are to be constructed by the Indonesia Port Corporation region II (Pelindo II) and the National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas). The goal of the project is to widen Cikarang Bekasi Laut (CBL), an existing river in order to maximize its potential. The route will be used as a new means of transportation and extends from Tanjung Priok Port to CDP. It will be more economical, energy-efficient, and time-efficient. There is no need for trucking operations, and traffic congestion can be minimized, particularly on the Jakarta - Cikampek and Inner Jakarta toll roads. By using the river, the government avoids building a new toll road. The primary objective of the Cikarang Bekasi Laut (CBL) inland waterway development is to maximize the river channel's potential as a substitute transportation route that connects rural areas and the offshore Tanjung Priok area.
As CDP offers services in cargo handling and logistics, it deals much with the customs. But not merely with the customs, the logistics service handled involves many stakeholders from both the government and the private sector. These stakeholders include exporters, importers, vessels providers, terminal operators, container freight stations, bonded warehouses, trucking and forwarding agents, third-party logistics (3PL), empty container depots as well as banking and other supporting facilities.[1]
CDP is legally permitted to deliver exported goods as well as receipt of imported goods to and from all over the world. This possibility is due to CDP having been registered in an international port network and already has a special and unique code which is IDJBK. This allows CDP to become an official Port of Origin and Port of Destination.[2]
