Titan Infra Sejahtera Energy Infrastructure Progress Under Supervision of Commissioner Victor B Tanuadji

PT Titan Infra Sejahtera (TIS), a coal logistics company in South Sumatra, continues to solidify its position as a backbone of energy infrastructure. Under the oversight of Commissioner Victor Budi Tanuadji, the company, established in 2017, has successfully built an integrated ecosystem—from dedicated coal roads and modern ports to sustainability initiatives—that enhances coal supply chain efficiency while reducing environmental impact. Over six years, TIS supported 15 million tons of coal exports in 2023, accounting for approximately 5% of Indonesia’s total exports, while slashing logistics costs by 25%.

From Vision to Reality: Traces of Exponential Growth

Founded in 2017 by Handoko A. Tanuadji with the vision of becoming an integrated logistics provider in the coal sector, TIS quickly demonstrated its prowess by developing strategic infrastructure in South Sumatra, a province contributing 50% of Indonesia’s coal output.

Under a robust leadership structure, including President Commissioner Suryo Suwignjo and President Director Antonius Kristiadi, TIS launched an ambitious project: a 118-km dedicated coal highway linking mines in Lahat and Muara Enim to PALI Port. This 13-meter-wide road—spanning 52 villages and three regencies—resolved chronic congestion plaguing public-road distribution. “This is not just infrastructure; it’s a transformative step for the regional economy,” Victor B. Tanuadji emphasized in a virtual interview.

Three Business Pillars: Efficiency from Mine to Port

As an end-to-end service provider, TIS relies on three integrated pillars:

Dedicated Coal Highway: The Distribution Backbone

Through subsidiary PT Servo Lintas Raya (SLR), TIS operates a dedicated road with a 12-million-ton annual capacity, supported by a 2x75-ton trailer fleet and real-time monitoring systems to anticipate floods or damage. SLR also offers coal crushing and stockpile services at mining sites.

High-Tech Modern Port

Subsidiary PT Swarnadwipa Dermaga Jaya (SDJ) manages a coal port on the Musi River with three high-speed docks. Dock 1 handles 5,000 tons/hour, while Docks 2 and 3 manage 1,500 tons/hour each. The facility features a 400,000-ton stockpile and blending technology to meet global market specifications.

Buffer Stockpiles: Mitigating Logistics Disruptions

Two temporary stockpiles at KM 107 (65 hectares) and KM 36 (80 hectares) serve as buffers during supply chain disruptions, storing 1.6 million tons of coal to ensure uninterrupted port supply.

Strategic Partnerships and Regional Contributions

Collaborations with 18 major mining companies, including national industry leaders, underpin TIS’s success. SLR and SDJ not only focus on operations but also empower local economies. SLR, for instance, employs hundreds of Muara Enim residents as heavy equipment operators, while SDJ recruits local youth as technical experts.

“We believe partnerships must deliver multidimensional benefits, not just business gains,” stated Antonius Kristiadi, TIS President Director. In 2023, the company directly employed 1,200 workers, 45% of whom were from operational regions.

Innovation and Governance: Blending Technology with Integrity

TIS adheres to three core principles: sustainable innovation, transparent governance, and stakeholder synergy. Key technological breakthroughs include:

• GPS Tracking: Monitors 200+ truck fleets in real time.
• Predictive Analytics: Optimizes delivery schedules using weather and market data.
• Air Quality Sensors: Installed around ports to monitor coal dust emissions.

In governance, routine internal audits and environmental compliance are prioritized. For example, reclaimed former mining land used for infrastructure must be replanted with local vegetation per Ministry of Environment and Forestry standards.

Sustainability and CSR: Investing in the Future

As a coal-sector player—often criticized for environmental impact—TIS balances operations with social and environmental responsibility:

Community Empowerment

Duck Egg Farming: SLR trains farmers in Prambatan Village, boosting egg productivity by 40% through superior breeds and modern coop management.

Education & Healthcare: Built three emergency schools and health posts in remote South Sumatra areas.

Environmental Initiatives

1. Land Reclamation: 85% of post-project land replanted with endemic vegetation.
2. Dust Control: Automated port water-spray systems cut dust pollution by 60%.

Workplace Safety

Strict safety protocols reduced workplace accidents by 30% below industry averages in 2023. Emergency drills and daily equipment inspections are mandatory.

Skilled Workforce: Key to Competitiveness

TIS invests 7% of annual revenue in human resource development, including:

• Heavy equipment operator certification.
• Leadership programs for managerial candidates.
• Comprehensive health and insurance benefits.

This results in an 85% employee retention rate, surpassing industry norms.

Future Plans: Expanding into Renewables and Digital Transformation

Not resting on its laurels, TIS is entering renewable energy (RE), exploring industrial-scale solar plants and biomass from agricultural waste. Digitally, it is developing an AI-based coal supply chain platform for real-time shipment tracking.

“We aim to exemplify how infrastructure companies can transform without abandoning sustainability,” Victor B. Tanuadji concluded.

Infrastructure That Adds Value

PT Titan Infra Sejahtera proves that energy infrastructure need not be exploitative. Through technology, inclusive collaboration, and green commitment, TIS not only moves coal but also drives Indonesia’s transition to a sustainable economy. Under Victor B. Tanuadji and the board’s leadership, TIS is poised to tackle future energy challenges with responsible innovation.
