Event Description

With firmly back in the driving seat of Asian coal market dynamics, join the who’s who of the international coal industry in Bali to debate, analyse and forecast the ripple effect this coal giant will have in the most dynamic coal producing and consuming region of the world.

 

Production: Growth in different shapes and sizes

Already the world’s largest exporter of steam coal, is expected to boost its outbound trade to 149Mt in 2007 – an increase of almost 25Mt on 2006. The largest and most established producers will make up the bulk of this growth but what of smaller-scale miners and current explorers? In 2007, we will turn the spotlight on these players who will play an integral role in the future of the industry.

 

Consumption: Power-hungry Asia

Across Asia, power demand is growing at a furious pace and projects for new generation capacity have been proliferating in China, India, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, Mongolia, etc. With most of the region mirroring ’s move away from dependence on oil, coal is a definite winner. Hear from key Asian and international consumers on their coal requirements and procurement strategies.

 

The promise of technology

PT PLN’s much touted ‘crash power programme’ is likely to be a major factor constraining future growth of exports from Indonesia, restricting the amount of coal available for the international markets. What technologies are being developed to transform uneconomic reserves into exportable commodities such as gasified, liquefied and upgraded coal?

 

PLUS: As always, benefit from our insightful analyses of shipping sector trends, transport logistics, trading and hedging, mining finance, and their influence on market fundamentals.

 

Make Coaltrans Asia your platform of choice to keep abreast of Asian coal industry trends and mingle with the leaders and decision-makers driving the growth of the region's coal business.
