Australia thermal coal dips to USD 110 per tonne
Monday, 19 Dec 2011
Reuters reported that Australia thermal coal prices, the benchmark for Asia slipped to around USD 110 per tonne in thin trading, although Chinese buyers were reportedly in the market for some cargoes next year.
Thermal coal on the global COAL Newcastle index for the week to date closed at USD 110.20 per tonne on Thursday down from USD 111.47 per tonne a week earlier. Despite the lower prices, there were reports that supplies from Australia Newcastle port were a little tight for very prompt delivery likely due to some producers overselling for December and January.
Australian thermal coal shipments from Newcastle port rose 34% in the week ended December 12 to 2.58 million tonnes while the vessel queue increased to 20 ships from 12 as some producers rushed to send out a few extra cargoes by the year end.
Chinese import demand for next year was seen picking up although sources said buyers were still not committing to large volumes.
Oe Sydney-based trade source said "It seems like we've seen a little timid term interest come from China."
In China, the domestic coal price benchmark was slightly lower at CNY 830 per tonne last week from CNY 840 the previous week.

Chinese Coal Imports Climb 36% on Power Demand, Sxcoal Says
Wed, Aug17, 2011
By Bloomberg
China’s July coal imports climbed 36 percent to 17.53 million metric tons from a year earlier, sxcoal.com, a Shanxi-based industry portal, said on its website, citing Chinese customs data.
That exceeded the customs bureau’s record of 17.34 million tons in December and 13.73 million tons in June. The official customs data is due to be released Aug. 22.
The world’s largest coal consumer and producer increased imports of the fuel amid the worst summer power shortages in at least seven years. A shrinking gap between domestic prices and global costs are also spurring purchases. The premium of Chinese coal to Newcastle prices narrowed to $8.74 a ton on June 10, according to Mirae Assets Ltd.
Coking-coal imports gained 29 percent to 4.05 million tons last month and coal for power plants rose 15 percent to 4.99 million tons, according to sxcoal. Imports declined 5.3 percent to 87.87 million tons in the first seven months, it said.

Asia coal Australia thermal coal prices steady in slow market

Friday,July29,2011
Australia's thermal coal prices, a benchmark for Asia, were steady in the past week as demand from Japan remained flat and Chinese demand waned.
Thermal coal on the globalCOAL Newcastle index for the week to date was AUD 120.63 per tonne on Thursday, essentially unchanged from AUD 120.75 per tonne a week earlier.
A Sydney based source said that "We haven't heard a lot of transactions, it's been very quiet.”
Demand for Australian coal has been relatively depressed since March when Japan, Australia's largest coal customer was hit with a tsunami that took some coal plants offline. Thermal coal shipments from Australia's Newcastle port, the nation's biggest thermal coal port, dropped 5.5% in the week to Monday.
