The tuna fishing industry significantly contributes to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions primarily through fuel oil usage. This study investigates the environmental impact of tuna transportation, focusing on emissions from fishing vessels and vehicles. Carbon footprint calculations for fishing vessels utilize the IPCC, 2006 formula as referenced in KLH, 2012. Smaller purse seiners (10-20 GT) emit 2.88 kg CO2per trip per kilogram of tuna, while those (20-30 GT) in PPS Kutaraja emit 3.58 kg CO2. Larger purse seiners exhibit higher emission rates: 7.3 kg CO2 (20-30 GT), 9.9 kg CO2 (30-40 GT), 8.6 kg CO2 (40-50 GT), and 8.4 kg CO2 (50-60 GT) per trip per kilogram of tuna. Vehicle emissions for tuna transport vary, with the Honda Blade FI 125 emitting 0.00625 kg CO2, Supra X 125 emitting 0.00450 kg CO2, Viar Tiga Roda emitting 0.00458 kg CO2, Revo Fit emitting 0.0007 kg CO2, Jupiter emitting 0.00063 kg CO2, and Vega ZR Yamaha emitting 0.0006 kg CO2 per kilogram of tuna.

The current collapsible pot hauler uses a wooden frame, thus making much space in the working area of the fishing boat and also at this time challenging to find the best quality wood at this time. In this study, the wood material would replace by metal; the selection of the proper material is critically needed. A suitable material means the applied material has to deal with environmental conditions. Finding the appropriate material applied to the collapsible pot hauler; can be determined using a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) approach. After selecting the proper material, the collapsible pot hauler simulates the material stress using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) simulation. The material for the new model of collapsible pot hauler was selected using the WSM method. The material with the highest rank (selected) is AISI 304, with a preference value of 3.58. The static strength simulation using the FEA method utilizing Solidworks Software shows that the yield strength value is still below the material properties, which a maximum value is 200. MPa, the material safety factor is the minimum value above one, which is 1.24 on the line spool plate shafts. It means that the material AISI 304 is safe to be applied to the collapsible pot hauler.

This research was aiming at analysing ergonomic aspects and identifying potential hazards resulted from fishing activities. Data was collected from a long line fishing vessel MV Satelit. Analysis of ergonomic aspects focused on four major activities namely setting, drifting, hauling and fish handling. The investigation was conducted to examine the suitability of on board working area with fishermen’s movement. The result showed that on board working area was inadequate compared to fishermen’s movement because of limited zones for fishermen (ranged from 1 – 3 m2/ person) without any safety equipment. Based on Job Safety Analysis (JSA), it was revealed that there were 14 potential hazards emerging from fishing activities; 64,29% of them were moderate risk and the rest were trivial risk. However, fishermen have no significant efforts to prevent those hazards. Keywords: : ergonomic, fishing vessel, occupational health and safety, tuna fishing, potential hazards
