Indonesian government has sets its November HBA at US$ 81.44 for 6322 GAR coal. November HBA is 5.35 per lower than October price or 30.18 percent lower than a year ago.

The Indonesian government has also reduced its DMO requirement by 18 percent due to lower consumption by power plants in Indonesia. Indonesian miners were required to allocate 67.3 million metric tons of coal under DMO requirement, down from the previous requirement of 82.1 million tons or less 14.8 million tons of coal set in August of last year. However, the market is calm and there is no excess cargo due to reduction of DMO. According to a one of the largest coal producer, the reduction on DMO requirement has not affected them, as they have already signed the contract as per previous requirement.

Recently Indonesian government has issued a DMO regulation for 2013 supply figures. According to DMO requirement, miners were asked to allocate 74.30 million metric tons of coal under the so-called domestic market obligation (DMO) in 2013, which is little higher than 2012 revised DMO requirement.

Year 2013,  DMO volume is almost equivalent to 20.30 percent of the targeted production volume of coal in 2013. The Indonesian government is forecasting the 2013 coal production will be around 337 million tons to 366.04 million tons.

Due to higher coal output and less demand, the price recovery will be in slow speed. According to coal a coal producer, Chinese demand is still slow. Hence the price recovery will take time. Now producers are pushing their existing buyer’s to perform their existing contracts which were concluded at a high price than the current price. “ We don’t have a coal to offer against any new inquiries for November or December delivery or at least until January 2013” , said a coal producer from Kalimantan.

“ Indonesian coal producers want to delay their annul coal supply contract negotiation to early next year to get better price than existing”, a market player said.
