Indonesian government has sets its January HBA at US$  87.55 for 6322 GAR coal. This month HBA, US$ 5.80 higher compared to December 2012 price. In the meantime, Energy and Mineral Resources Deputy Minister of Indonesia has forecasted that, the Indonesia coal reference price (HBA) will reach over US$100 per ton this year following potential economic recovery as showed by the recent US fiscal-cliff budget deal.

However, Bahana Securities, one of the leading securities in Indonesia, said in its latest coal outlook that,  1M price outperformance’s are mainly on seasonal effect which raised global coal prices by some 16% from its bottom in November 2012. Bahana maintains 2013 coal price assumption at USD82/ton (-15% y-y), given continued uncertainties in global outlook, temporary restocking condition, increasing coal output and US industrial users’ switch to shale gas.

Inquiries from India is still flooding in to Indonesian market. According to coal traders in Indonesia, Indian buyers are willing to offer little higher price than that they have bids last months. The coal market direction is seems to be struck in fog. Hope, the coming weeks, can give a clear direction for coal prices for the rest of the year.

According to available data, Indonesia, the world largest multi grade coal exporter has shipped  33.578* million tons of coal in November 2012 which is around 4.45* percent lower compared to October exports.

Most of the Indonesian coal had shipped to China and India in November 2012. Indonesian low GCV coal is still an attractive fuel for Indian consumers due to its cheap price as well as lower freight. Indian coal imports from Indonesia has increased significantly in 2012 and expected it will reach more than 75 million tons in 2012. According to available information, Indonesia also shipped 300.488* million tons of coal (all grades included) in first 10 months. As usual 53.18* percent of total exported coal goes to china and India.

According to our sources, 58.65* percent of Indonesia’s total coal exports in November has shipped to China and India.


Indonesia’s coal output is also expected to  increase by 1.2 percent to 391 million tons from 386 million tons last year, as cited by local media, referring minister’s quote. As Indonesia is planning to produce more coal in 2013, and the market demand is also expected to be flat in 2013, we feel, the price recovery may face higher pressure  in 2013.
