In response to Singapore re-entering Phase 2 (heightened alert), and the recent measures imposed by the Singapore Government to combat the surge in Covid-19 community cases, S&P Global Platts has taken the decision to hold the Singapore Coking Coal Conference virtually only. The hybrid event was due to be held in Singapore on July 15. As a company, our top priority is the safety and wellbeing of our delegates and speakers, our partners, our colleagues and vendors.
The seaborne metallurgical coal and coke markets entered 2021 with increased spot price volatility, following a transformative year in 2020, which saw shifts in global trade flows and historic price dislocations.
Coupled with the uncertainty of the pandemic, new trending themes like energy transition and the unofficial Chinese import ban on Australian coal, are shaping much of the conversation in coking coal markets today.
What are the key market factors that could affect seaborne prices this year? How will demand for greener steel be met? Can hydrogen and renewable power be incorporated to help the global steel sector lower its emissions profile?
