Changing Share of Coal Exporters to Asia

Asian thermal and coking coal imports have played an increasingly important role in global coal trade in recent years. Asian imports are the largest contributor to global coal trade and have been growing at the fastest rate. Growth in combined Chinese and Indian imports represented 89% of total global coal import growth between 2007 and 2012.

Low Quality Alternative

The Graph of the Month shows the changing share of each major coal exporter of exports to Asia over the last 6 years. Furthermore, the shaded area shows total featured coal exports to Asia have grown from 30mt in January 2007 to 67mt in March 2013. Indonesia and Australia together supplied 91% of Asian imports at the start of 2013, but their shares have shifted over time. Indonesia is now 

Asia’s largest coal supplier, accounting for around 50% of shipments, having overtaken Australia in 2010. The growth of Indonesian exports from 40% in January 2007 has mostly been driven by strong Asian demand, particularly from China and India as they have been willing to import relatively low quality coal. Indonesia has been able to rapidly expand its supply of lower quality steam coal to meet this growing demand. Since 2007, shipments from Indonesia to Asia have grown by 47%, and Australian shipments have increased by 164%.

Atlantic Supply

Atlantic (Colombia, South Africa and the US) coal supply as a proportion of total exports to Asia has grown significantly. Over 10% of exports to Asia are now sourced from the Atlantic. South Africa historically used to mainly export to Europe; however, when European demand fell in 2008/9, Asian demand grew. Therefore, South African coal shipments have largely shifted to Asia. US steam coal exports have increased as domestic coal demand has fallen, partially due to the increased use of shale gas in power generation. US coking coal exports have also grown and will continue to grow with the potential development of further port infrastructure on the west coast of the US.

Regulatory Impact

Going forward, Asian coal imports are projected to continue to grow firmly. Indonesia and Australia are likely to remain the region’s main suppliers, but market shares are likely to continue to develop. For example, regulatory risks may affect Indonesian exports.

So, Asian coal imports have grown strongly in recent years. Imports increased by 78% between 2007 and today. Meanwhile, Asian tonne-mile imports increased 99% due to growth in longer haul shipments from the Atlantic and Indonesian-Indian coal trade. Despite the decline in European tonne-mile coal imports since 2007, the overall growth in Asian tonne-mile imports has supported a 42% increase in global coal tonne-mile trade since 2007. As a result, Asian coal imports and shifts in tonne-mile trends have been important to recent growth in global demand for coal shipping, and are expected to remain major drivers of global coal trade trends in the longer term.
