US$ 8 BILLION WORTH OF INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS IN PIPELINE IN INDONESIA - WOOD MACKENZIE


India’s Increasing Demand for Thermal Coal  Cannot Be Satisfied Without Emerging Coal Areas in Indonesia - Wood Mackenzie 

At Coaltrans India 2011 in New Delhi today, Wood Mackenzie says that emerging coal supply areas in Indonesia will be instrumental to meeting rapidly growing coal demand from India.

Drawing on information contained within Wood Mackenzie’s Coal Supply Service and Global Cost and Margin Tool, Presenter and Coal Research Analyst, Rohan Kendall said, “Indonesia will account for 40 percent of growth in seaborne thermal coal supply over the next ten years, with the emerging coal areas of the South Sumatra basin and Wahau coal field making an important contribution to this growth. There is US$8 billion of infrastructure projects in the pipeline in these emerging areas that will support export growth.”

Emerging coal regions are a good fit for developing economies, such as India, because the basins contain abundant reserves. These areas are experiencing upstream investment as Indian power generators such as Reliance and Adani look to secure coal supplies for new power stations.  There are currently several ultra-mega power plants being built in India with a capacity of over 4,000 Megawatts each; and still more are planned. The projects currently in development are similar in capacity to those in China and are expected to be operational between the second half of 2011 and 2014.

Kendall expands, “Coal production costs are low in emerging basins in Indonesia, which is why they are attractive to Indian power generators. The costs of investing upstream to secure coal requirements are much lower than Indian power generators would otherwise pay if they were to purchase all of their coal on the seaborne market. Also, for power stations that are being built on the coast, it is more realistic to seek seaborne supplies which do not depend on India’s rail network for transport.”

Wood Mackenzie says in order for emerging thermal coal supply areas to fulfil their potential, infrastructure challenges need to be overcome. Kendall says, “There is currently insufficient infrastructure in these areas to support large scale coal exports. There are numerous projects proposed which combined would add 140 million tons per annum (Mtpa) of capacity. We believe that some of these are unlikely to progress given regulatory challenges.”

In summary, coal supplies from emerging basins in Indonesia are expected to increase strongly over the next ten years. The large reserves in these areas will be instrumental to meeting India’s future thermal coal requirements. Coal from emerging areas is cost competitive with established basins but the main question remaining is when and how the infrastructure issues can be overcome to bring the coal to market.
