Indonesia Bali Waterways Assessment

There are currently no inland navigable waterways in use in Bali.  However, the use of seaports is extensive for the movement of cargo and people.  This section should be read in conjunction with the Ports assessment for Bali which contains more detailed information regards the capacity and use of the ports within Bali.

Company Information

 

4.2.4 Indonesia Port and Waterways Company Contact Lists

Passengers and cargo are moved throughout the Bali region primarily through ferries.  There are some “fast boats” or speed boats used for passengers, however this is mostly for tourists to move between Bali and Lombok.  The companies that are documented below are a combination of the larger ferry companies which can carry 350-400 passengers and the smaller fast boats which can carry 25-50 passengers.

2.5.4 Indonesia Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB) Waterways Assessment


Indonesia Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB)  Waterways Assessment

The use of the waterways between islands is a key mode of transport for cargo and passengers within the NTB province. 

Ports are located throughout the islands and there are ferry options to move within the islands or to Bali. 

In case of an emergency operation PT. ASDP would offer ferries available for rental. 

The port of Surabaya is a major hub for the NTB with regular sailings of boats and ferries with passengers and cargo.

Company Information

For information on Indonesia waterways contact details, please see the following link:

 

4.2.4 Indonesia Port and Waterways Company Contact Lists

Two companies operate scheduled passenger and cargo ferry services on a large scale within NTB - PT.Pelni and PT ASDP.

 In addition to the larger services there are a number of tourism operators who provide “speed” boat services between NTB and Bali.

2.5.5 Papua Waterways Assessment


 

Papua Waterways Assessment

 

The primary waterway usage in the Papua province is between the island and main ports.  Jayapura port is the main port where cargo (which is already customs cleared) enters the province.  From there cargo is then distributed onwards to other districts such as Biak and Merauke.

Cargo is also moved by rivers in Merauke and Wamena districts via speed boats.  There is a development plan underway to increase the capacity of the river movements using larger ferries for passengers and cargo. 

However, development of the appropriate infrastructure is not complete and there is no indication of when they will be operational.

During the summer months (August – December) the water level can often be too low to reach Tanah Merah from Merauke.  During this time cargo and passengers are trans-shipped to smaller boats for onward movement.
