Description
Summary:Coal prices during the second quarter to the third quarter of 2020 were very worrying amidst the survival phase with low demand for coal in the market and this condition became important for PT. Berau Coal to be able to participate in coal procurement tenders, especially for direct customers with long-term contracts. The absence of product separation in binungan, especially block 8 on sodium parameters, becomes a problem when there is demand in the market for competitive product quality, especially from the premium market (FGH Power Plant) with long-term contracts and domestic markets (KLM and OPQ Power Plant) as direct customers, so that it forces the fulfillment of product quality to companies using products with high mining costs to accommodate these needs. For this product separation activity to be done, regular discussions are held with a team from binungan (Engineer, Planning, Geology & CPP) to collect data both primary and secondary by conducting observations & interviews with competent personnel in each supply chain regarding the impacts that arise when product separation is carried out (from mine to jetty). From the problems that arise, several solutions can be run in parallel, such as: consistently taking pit samples at the mine, products with low sodium requirements are sent according to shipping schedules, increasing crusher productivity by blending products from block 7 west & block 8 and reducing products from Sambarata which has high mining costs. With the implementation of some of these solutions, the projected 3-year mixing cost savings of $0.94/metric tons, projected increase in revenue for the premium market of $2.75/metric tons, and the potential reduction of $1.00/metric tons penalty from the inaccuracy of sales delivery to the domestic market.
