Proposal to launch Indonesian CSR65/63% coke price assessment

Fastmarkets proposes the launch of a new price assessment for the Indonesia CSR65/63% coke price.

This price assessment aims to enhance transparency in the Indonesian coke market. Fastmarkets has observed a significant volume of Indonesian coke entering the global market in recent months, establishing Indonesia as a key exporter of coke worldwide since 2023.

In the first seven months of 2024, Poland, China and Indonesia were the top three coke exporters globally.  Poland accounted for 18%, China 33% and Indonesia 12%, of the total global coke trade volume.

During this period, Indonesia exported approximately 2.02 million tonnes of coke out of the global total of 17.11 million tonnes. In comparison, the country exported only 1.6 million tonnes out of a total global trading volume of 32.6 million tonnes in 2023, according to an industry source.

According to industry estimates, the total Indonesian coke exports could reach 4.18 million tonnes, with the country likely to become the second largest coke exporter after 2025.

The specifications for the proposed price assessment are as follows:
