Make Your Coal Procurement Successful
We specialize in providing comprehensive consulting services to international buyers, utilities, and coal trading companies seeking to streamline their Indonesian supply chain, verify counterparties, and maximize commercial profitability.
Our Consulting Expertise
Seven specialized practice areas designed to de-risk Indonesian coal transactions and ensure operational success.
Market Analysis & Strategy
In-depth market analysis and tailored procurement strategies to help buyers capitalize on Indonesian coal pricing cycles (ICI 1 to ICI 5 benchmarks), mitigate commodity exposure, and secure competitive supply windows.
- Indonesian Coal Index (ICI) historical & forward trend tracking
- Seasonal weather impact modeling on South Kalimantan supply
- Comparative pricing analysis across regional export ports
Supply Chain & Logistics Optimization
Barge-to-vessel logistics are the critical profit driver in dry bulk trading. We evaluate interior river barging distances, conveyor jetty loading throughputs, and anchorage laycan allocations to eliminate costly vessel demurrage.
- Jetty conveyor vs. mechanical loading route selection
- Tug & barge fleet capacity matching (300ft / 330ft sets)
- Anchorage selection (Taboneo, Asam Asam, Muara Satui, Tanjung Pemancingan)
Risk Management & Hedging Strategies
We assist international buyers in structuring robust risk management frameworks, hedging mechanisms, and penalty-buffer formulas against calorific variance, moisture spikes, and foreign exchange volatility.
- Rejection and penalty threshold calibration (calorific, moisture, ash)
- Telegraphic Transfer (T/T) & Documentary Letter of Credit (L/C) review
- Vessel charterparty laytime and dispatch calculation oversight
Contract Negotiation & Management
Guidance in drafting and negotiating favorable Sales & Purchase Agreements (SPA) under Incoterms 2020 (FOB Vessel, CFR, CIF). We balance contractual terms between international buyers and local Indonesian concessionaires.
- Comprehensive Sales & Purchase Agreement (SPA) review
- Accredited surveyor inspection clauses (SGS, Sucofindo)
- Force majeure and vessel nomination protocol alignment
Regulatory Compliance & Due Diligence
Navigating Indonesia’s evolving mineral export governance requires strict compliance. We audit concession IUP-OP validity, MODI/MOMINS registration, paid-up royalties (DHPB / e-PNBP), Export Approval (ET Batubara) credentials, and mandatory DHE SDA compliance under PP No. 21/2026 (effective 1 June 2026).
- Mining license verification via MEMR (ESDM) MODI portal
- Royalty payment confirmation (e-PNBP SIMPONI vouchers)
- Customs export clearance (PEB & NPE) compliance check
- PP No. 21/2026 DHE SDA banking repatriation alignment
- PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia (DSI) export governance alignment
Know Your Supplier (KYS) Audits
Understanding the operational credibility of mine concession holders and traders is paramount. We conduct rigorous field and statutory due diligence to prevent non-performing cargo contracts and counterfeit mining documents.
- Corporate legal entity & statutory deed verification
- Stockpile physical inspection and seam continuity audit
- Past performance and shipment track record validation
Advise on Suitable Coal Specifications
Every thermal utility, cement kiln, or industrial boiler has unique combustion requirements. We recommend ideal Indonesian coal grades (GAR 3400 to 6300+), volatile matter, and sizing profiles to optimize burning efficiency.
- Boiler specification and slagging/fouling index assessment
- Custom blending recipe design to hit target calorific bands
- Trace element limits evaluation (Sulfur, Chlorine, Phosphorus, Trace Metals)
