Abstract

River transportation in Papua’s 3T region plays a crucial role in connecting remote communities where land infrastructure is limited. Developing a reliable water transportation system requires ship designs that are both technically and economically feasible. This study proposes the development of a water bus using the Parent Ship-Based Design (PSBD) method, where design parameters from existing vessels are adapted to fit Papua's river conditions. Key technical components analyzed include hull dimensions, resistance, powering, and stability using methods such as Savitsky resistance analysis and IMO stability criteria. Economic analysis was also conducted to evaluate CAPEX, OPEX, NPV, IRR, and Payback Period. The selected design features a 15-meter vessel optimized for operations on the Ajkwa River, and results confirm that the design meets hydrodynamic and financial feasibility thresholds. This study contributes to the design foundation of efficient inland water transport systems in remote regions
