Abstract

The maritime world is very rapidly developing today and requires human resources who are very skilled in their fields, also the maritime world is not a business without risks, one of which often occurs is ship accidents, both caused by external factors and internal factors such as bad weather, high waves or fires that can sink ships. One of the factors causing ship accidents at sea from within is the role of the crew who do not pay attention to the calculation of the stability of the ship so that it can disrupt the general balance which as a result can cause fatal accidents. As is well known, ballast is one of the ship's stability devices that greatlyaffects the weight of a ship that can make it stable and prevent capsizing or to petrifyit upright again.

Such is the importance of knowledge of calculating ship stability, especiallythe influence of ballast water for shipping safety, therefore every crew member concerned or even prospective crew must be equipped with a set of knowledge andskills in maintaining the stability conditions of their ships so that safety and comfortof shipping can be achieved. This research was carried out for 2 weeks of internshipon the MT SENIPAH ship owned by the company PT. PERTAMINA.

This research uses qualitative methods using observation, interview and documentation methods. Primary data is obtained directly by observing and interviewing the skipper and secondary data is obtained from data collection and documentation. The results of this study show the importance of the use of ballast for ships when loading in ports because ballasts are proven to help regulate ship stability from ship trim, ship draft, and the degree of inclination of the vessel.
