“Inquiries from India and China are still in the market, but the conclusions rates are lower compare to floating of inquiries" said an international coal trader. The FOB bids are not favoring suppliers at this moment, the gap between offers and bids are quite wider he added.
"This is the bottom level of price that we can accept to sell our cargo. If the coal prices fall further we may cut our production or if the situation goes worst, then we may stop totally our production until the situation rebound ", said a top officer from a coal mine in Sumatera. An another coal miner from South Kalimantan also shared the same view. Some of small scale producers are already reduced their output to 50 percent.
5,000 kcal/kg GAR coal from Central Kalimantan is being offered low sixties, but the bids were lower than those numbers.
In the meantime, a 5,800 kcal/kg GAR coal is being offered around mid seventies this week against bids of low seventies, a trader said. There is not much conclusions. However the offers and bids are flowing in to the market as normal level.
It is not clear whether the government of Indonesia will interfere to stabilize the coal prices of Indonesian origin by instructing coal miners to cut their production to keep demand stable to achieve better prices.
According to mining law 4/ 2009 all the miners in Indonesia to requires to follow government declared coal prices ( HBA) when they conclude a coal sales and purchase contract with their buyers.
However, in this month, the government declared minimum selling price of Indonesian coal for June delivery was higher than the current market prices. The producers, specially who are selling their coal on spot basis, forced to sell lower than HBA price but paying royalties and corporate taxes based on HBA prices.
“The profit margins are almost nearing to zero for those who sell coal on spot deals and low GCV / High moisture producers”, a small scale coal producer from South Kalimantan said.
The government declared HBA in June fall to lowest level since January 2011 and expecting to fall again in next month. The monthly coal reference price for coal sales in June fell 5.36 percent MoM and 18.80 percent YoY.
The Ministry of Energy & Mineral Resources of Indonesia sets the coal’s spot price benchmark for June 2012 at US$ 96.65 per ton (basis 6322 GAR coal), which was US$ 5.47 lower than May 2012 Price and US$ 22.38 lower compared to the same period in 2011.
