According to paper reports in Indonesia, Deputy Energy and Mineral Resources Minister was concerned about current falling coal prices and according to him,  the continued fall in coal prices would severely hurt the country’s coal mining companies. Hence, “the government is ready to help by giving tax holidays or other fiscal measures, if the price of coal  hit below US$ 60.

According coal analysts, over supply of coal is one of the main reason for the current low prices. Unless mining companies reduce their coal production to counter the low demand, the price recovery will take more time than expected.

However, some of the Indonesia’s major coal producers have already revised their annual target due to the declining coal prices. Indonesia’s single largest coal producer Adaro Energy, has revised its 2012 production forecasts to 48 million and 50 million metric tons, Berau Coal has lower its production forecast to 20 million to 22 million tons. The largest Indonesian coal miner BUMI also planning to reduce its production forecast in 2012.

Few small scale coal miners, specially low calorific value coal producers in Indonesia have already suspended their productions and some miners have cut down their production at least by 50 percent within last three months. Indonesian government declared minimum selling price has gained 1.84 percent in September on MoM.
