COLOMBIAN COAL STARTS TO MOVE TO CHINA - TRADERS
 * Producer sells cape cargo Colombian coal to China
* Firm bids in freight market
* More shipments expected
Colombian coal is starting to move into China to feed the voracious demand of coastal utilities which cannot get enough domestic coal, traders said on Thursday.
New Colombian spot business into China will accelerate the global tightening of coal supply and continued rise in prices, they said.
"It's certainly getting interesting and I can't say too much about the cargo we sold but the appetite for coal from Colombia - and elsewhere - in China is there," a Colombian coal exporter said.
"It remains to be seen how much they actually book but there do seem to be opportunities for spot business. It's difficult now because the market's so volatile and swaps prices move dramatically within a few hours," he said.
China is the world's largest coal producer but imported over 50 million tonnes in 2009 because imports to coastal utilities were cheaper than domestic coal railed or shipped from mines in the north.
The current severe weather in China is disrupting domestic deliveries and increasing power demand at the same time, traders said. While this continues, China will suck in coal from all possible origins.
COLOMBIA WINDOW
During 2009 strong freight rates kept the delivered cost of Colombian coal to China uncompetitive compared with Australian, Russian, Indonesian and South African coal.
Colombia was the sole major coal exporting country unable to benefit from Asia's hunger for coal last year but a window is opening to allow some spot trades, they said.
"There's not going to be major term business of millions of tonnes from Colombia to China in 2010 but it's fair to say that the window is opening for some spot cargoes. Some opportunistic trade is looking viable right now," one major European utility/trader said.
A prompt loading cape cargo of Colombian coal has been sold this week to a Chinese utility by a producer, said a major Colombian producer who declined to be identified.
"There are enquiries in the freight market, there are firm numbers being talked now from Colombia to China," said Emmanuel Fages, analyst with Paris-headquartered Societe Generale. To read more Reuters / Alibaba
