• 2017-2019: Coordinator for the feasibility study of reutilization of abandoned oil and gas platforms for marine and fisheries purposes (rig to reef program) collaborated with Korea Maritime and Ocean University Consortium (KMOUC). Tasks: rig to reef site selection criteria, Environmental Impact Assessment and Economic Feasibility (cost benefit analysis) collaborate with CICo (now PT. Pertamina Hulu Kalimantan Timur, PT. PHKT, for their fields in Bontang and Balikpapan) and PT Pertamina Hulu Energi Offshore North West of Java, PT. PHE ONWJ)

• 2018: Co-coordinator for the calculation model of economic losses due to illegal fishing activities in Indonesian territorial water funded by Margaret A. Cargill Philanthropies and The David and Lucile Packard Foundation. Tasks: overlay and analyze the radar/VMS/AIS data to identify the illegal fisher, conversion the length of fishing vessel into its productivity to calculate the loss;

• 2014-2017: Co-coordinator for INDESO (Infrastructure Development of Space Oceanography) Downstream Applications. INDESO is a collaboration project between GOI and French. Main responsibility was delivering its seven applications as follows: Mangrove and Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM), Seaweeds application, Coral reef monitoring, Shrimp ponds utilization, Oil spill application, Illegal fishing detection and Fish stock management;

• 2013: Coordinator for Renewable Energy and Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) for Financing of Solar-Powered Cold-Storage and Ice making Facilities for Fishing Communities in Indonesia collaborated with Contained Energy (CE). Tasks: identify and analyze the candidate location (mainly in the east part of Indonesia) for solar powered cold storage
