BHATIA INTERNATIONAL, MIGHT GRAB THE MAJORITY OF COAL SUPPLY ORDER FROM MAHAGENCO


COALspot.com: Maharashtra State Power Generation Co., a provider of electricity to India’s commercial hub Mumbai, has received price bids from Indian traders to supply 3.35 million metric tons of steaming coal against its recent inquiry. MAHAGENCO has floated a tender in last March to secure 3.35 million ton of coal for its NTPS, BTPS, PTPS, KPKD & CSTPS  plants. 

The tender was closed on 29 May  2010, and last Thursday MAHAGENCO has opened the price bids to finalize supplier. Total seven Indian coal trading companies have participated in this tender to see their chances to win and supply 3.35 million tons of coal in this fiscal year. 

The total of 3.35 million tons of coal would be shared by NTPS, BTPS, PTPS, KPKD & CSTPS operates by Mahagenco. The company has increased coal imports this year compare to last fiscal year. Company’s last fiscal year imports were about 2.4 million tons.

According to our sources, MAHAGENCO used to buy coal basis on a fixed price for a whole year.  However, there was rumors that, Mahagenco might change its sourcing mechanism from this tender onward. 

Mahagenco may buy coal in the future at prices linked to global coal prices, instead of fixed price for a whole year. However, it was not clear this fiscal year supply would be fixed price basis or index link pricing. Some other Indian utilities are already sourcing coal, using an index link pricing mechanism.

Bhatia International, an Indian coal trading company, might grab the majority of coal supply order from MAHAGENCO this year, a source related to tender said. Adani global, another leading coal trader in India might also get a chance to supply coal to one of the MAHAGENCO’s power plants as Adani was the lowest bidder in Parli thermal power station.

The landed elevated price of coal offered by lowest bidders were ranging from US$ 101.62 - 110.75 per metric ton for GCV (adb) 6300 kcal/kg, Total Moisture (arb) 10%,  Ash (adb) 14% and Sulphur ( adb) 0.7%.

As per MHAGENCO tender terms and conditions, MAHAGENCO can apply higher penalties for specific parameters of coal, if suppliers fail to supply coal as per guaranteed quality.

Any Calorific value of coal fell below 5800 kcal/kg (gad), then an addition to pro rata penalty, an additional penalty of INR 300 (US$ 6.38) per 100 kcal/kg will be penalized. Ash content of coal exceeds 14% , then penalty of  INR 150 (US$ 3.20) per percentage per mt will be penalized.

Higher total moisture and total sulphur  also subject to an additional penalties.

Steam coal prices at Newcastle, was at $ 100.77 a ton  for GCV (gar) 6322 kcal/kg at the time of tender closing and at $ 95.05 a ton at the time of opening of the price bid, according to globalCOAL website, the world's leading online coal trading platform.

Indonesian coal price reference also dropped by about 0.58 percent in July 2010 compare to June reference price. Indonesian government has declared US$ 96.65 as  coal price reference for July  2010  for GCV (gar) 6322 kcal/kg, total moisture 8%, sulphur (adb) 0.8% and ash content (adb) 15%.
