Surabaya (beritajatim.com) - PT Dok Perkapalan Surabaya (DPS) kini mengerjakan empat pesanan kapal yang datang dari PT Pertamina sebanyak dua unit dan dua unit lagi dari sebuah perusahaan di Singapura.

Proyek dari Pertamina adalah kapal berkapasitas 6.500 GWT dengan nilai kontrak per kapalnya 15 juta dollar AS. Sedangkan kapal dari Singapura berkapasitas 6.300 GWT dengan nilai kontrak masing-masing 10 juta dollar AS. Jadi, total nilai pesanan itu mencapai 50 juta dollar AS.

Direktur Pelaksana PT DPS Firmansyah, Jumat (19/6/2009) mengatakan, pada tahun lalu perusahaannya mengerjakan 130 unit reparasi kapal dengan nilai Rp 1,7 miliar - Rp 1,9 miliar per unitnya. "Tahun ini PT DPS menargetkan pencapaian minimal sama dengan tahun lalu," ujarnya.

"Untuk reparasi, tiga bulan di depan selalu sudah penuh. Kami tidak mengejar banyaknya unit kapal, tapi nilai kontraknya," imbuhnya.

Tahun ini DPS mengalokasikan belanja modal sekira Rp 60 miliar untuk operasional rutin dan pengadaan beberapa alat. Tahun lalu untuk maintenance kami alokasikan Rp 40 miliar. Tahun ini diperkirakan sekitar Rp 60 miliar, termasuk yang untuk non rutin. [tok/kun]

Swine flu-struck cruise ship heads for Aruba

A SPANISH cruise ship hit by an outbreak of the H1N1 flu virus among its crew headed for its final stop at the Caribbean island of Aruba today, the ship operator said.

The Ocean Dream, owned by Royal Caribbean Cruises, was on a week-long cruise due to end on Friday but its itinerary was limited after several crew members came down with the swine flu.
Venezuela confirmed three cases of H1N1 flu among the ship's crew when the boat arrived at the island of Margarita and more than 300 Venezuelan passengers were allowed off, Royal Caribbean subsidiary Pullmantur said. The ship's remaining 900 passengers and crew are expected to disembark late today in Aruba, the cruise's final stop. The ship made stops earlier in the week in Barbados and Grenada, but authorities there refused to let passengers leave the ship. Pullmantur denied reports by Venezuelan health authorities that the boat had been quarantined for a week along with its passengers, who are mainly from Spain, Colombia and Venezuela but also include Brazilian, British and French citizens.
"The boat is continuing its itinerary in the direction of Aruba, where the rest of the passengers and the affected crew will disembark," the company said in a statement. Barbados refused to let the ship dock on Tuesday because 43 crew members exhibited flu-like symptoms, the Barbados Ministry of Health said.Many of the small island states in the eastern Caribbean depend on cruise ship arrivals as an important source of foreign exchange for their vulnerable economies.
