PT Biro Klasifikasi Indonesia (Persero) (BKI), as the lead of the Survey Services SOEs Holding (IDSurvey), held a Coordination Meeting on the Follow-Up of MEPC 83 with the Sub-Directorate of Pollution Prevention and Ship Safety & Environmental Protection in Waters (PMKK) – Directorate of Shipping and Maritime Affairs (Ditkapel), Ministry of Transportation, on April 21, 2025.

The meeting was attended by Mr. Fredhi Agung Prasetyo, Vice President of Classification & Statutory Research and Development at BKI, and Dr. Capt. Miftakhul Hadi, S.ST, MM, M.Mar, Head of the Sub-Directorate of Pollution Prevention and Ship Safety & Environmental Protection in Waters, Directorate of Shipping and Maritime Affairs.

The purpose of the meeting was to align national policies with the outcomes of the IMO MEPC 83 session (April 7–11, 2025). The discussion focused primarily on reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and lowering carbon intensity in shipping through the GHG Fuel Intensity (GFI) approach, which adopts the Well-to-Wake principle. This approach accounts for emissions across the entire fuel life cycle to ensure effective and sustainable decarbonization efforts.

Through this dialogue, Indonesia is expected to strengthen its readiness in addressing increasingly stringent international regulations, while advancing the transformation of the maritime sector towards a cleaner, more efficient, and sustainable sea transportation system.
