Pelindo Drafts Cooperation Agreements as PINP Pendulum Scheme Enters PKS Stage

Pelindo is drafting cooperation agreements for its PINP pendulum shipping scheme, covering berthing windows, transshipment policy, and handling discounts of up to 20 percent. Performance will be tracked via the ADHARA system.

Following the launch of the Indonesia Network Pendulum (PINP) — Pelindo's hub-and-spoke shipping scheme introduced on 17 October with eight initial corridors and a target of around 20 corridors by 2027 — the state port operator is now drafting the cooperation agreements (PKS) that will govern its implementation. A Pelindo official confirmed the drafting in an interview on 8 November, according to MaritimNews.

Issues being prepared in the draft include berthing windows, transshipment policies at Tanjung Priok, Tanjung Perak, and Makassar, integration of Container Consolidation Centres, and handling discounts of up to 20 percent when load factor coefficients are met. Implementation is to be measured through the ADHARA integrated system, which tracks vessel utilization, container movements, and incentive claims in real time.

PINP is designed to consolidate cargo flows onto designated trunk routes between Indonesian ports, with feeder services connecting smaller terminals. The cooperation agreements are expected to formalize commitments from shipping lines and related service providers ahead of the planned corridor expansion next year.
