Abstract

General Background Maritime transportation systems heavily rely on wooden cargo vessels driven by diesel engines operating under demanding conditions to sustain regional distribution networks. Specific Background Maintenance operations conducted at PT Duta Bahtera Permai focus on inspecting, maintaining, and repairing diesel engines of wooden cargo ships to ensure continuous operational reliability. Knowledge Gap Existing technical reports frequently lack comprehensive integration between hands-on ship engine troubleshooting documentation and structured academic skill development frameworks. Aims This study examines the maintenance procedures, component inspections, and repair methodologies applied to wooden cargo ship diesel engines during an industrial internship program. Results Field evaluations indicate that structured preventive maintenance, systematic fault identification in lubrication and cooling systems, and periodic component replacements effectively maintain operational stability and prevent unexpected engine downtime. Novelty A detailed practical workflow documenting hands-on diesel engine maintenance and troubleshooting procedures specifically tailored for wooden cargo ship operations. Implications Implementing systematic inspection routines and preventive maintenance strategies significantly enhances marine diesel engine durability, optimizes fuel efficiency, and improves technical readiness for engineering graduates.

Key Findings Highlights

  1. Hands-on diagnostic routines effectively isolate malfunctions within diesel engine lubrication and fuel injection systems.

  2. Routine preventive maintenance procedures successfully extend machinery lifespan and sustain continuous operational performance.

  3. Structured field supervision bridges theoretical mechanical engineering knowledge with practical maritime repair applications.
