Abstract
The development of marine shrimp hatchery infrastructure represents a strategic investment to strengthen aquaculture productivity, seed quality control, and regional economic resilience in coastal Indonesia. However, hatchery construction requires substantial capital allocation and integrated technical planning to ensure operational efficiency and long-term sustainability. This study aims to develop a comprehensive technical planning framework and conduct a detailed construction cost analysis for a proposed marine shrimp hatchery facility in Kutai Kartanegara Regency, East Kalimantan. An integrated engineering and cost evaluation approach was employed, including site surveys, topographic measurements, geotechnical assessment, architectural and structural design, and preparation of a Bill of Quantities based on standardized regional unit price analysis for 2024. The findings indicate that the selected site in Muara Badak is technically feasible for development and strategically located near seawater sources. The total estimated construction cost amounts to IDR 39,096,689,000, with the largest allocation directed to core hatchery production buildings (39.18%), followed by supporting facilities (36.78%) and water treatment systems (12.87%). This distribution highlights the capital-intensive nature of controlled production environments and biosecure water management systems in intensive shrimp hatchery operations. The study concludes that integrated technical design combined with transparent cost estimation is essential to ensure financial accountability, structural reliability, and environmental sustainability. The proposed hatchery is expected to function as a regional seed supply hub, supporting smallholder farmers and strengthening the aquaculture value chain in Kutai Kartanegara Regency.
