the United States Navy agreed to lease Tidewater to the Indonesian Navy (TNI-AL) upon decommissioning. Accordingly, when she was placed out of commission at Norfolk on 20 February she was turned over to the Indonesian Navy and recommissioned as KRI Dumai (652). Dumai was purchased outright under the Security Assistance Program by Indonesia on 14 March 1980, and struck from the U.S. Naval Vessel Register. As of 1981 Dumai was not operational and used as accommodation ship for oil field personnel, with most of her equipment already landed. She went out of service in 1984 and was scrapped. One of her 5-inch/38-caliber gun is preserved as a monument in Dumai City, her namesake.
