OFFICIALPUBLICATION

Coaltrans India 2006 will focus on theprincipal challenges facing the Indiancoal markets, both from the producers’and consumers’ perspectives. Keysessions will focus on the overwhelmingneed to reduce stock shortages and thesteps being taken to achieve this.Focused presentations will consider thechallenges of building a competitivecoal market in India, raising productionin an environmentally sustainable way,and the critical need to ensure energysecurity through strategic overseasinvestment.

Coaltrans India 2006 will examine all thecrucial issues pertinent to the future of theIndian coal producing and consumingindustries, including:

� Expected growth and development ofthe Indian steel industry

� Availability of coking coal to the Indiansteel industry

� Development of the power industry –the consumers perspective

� Key markets for imports to India� Potential role of coal bed methane in

satisfying India’s energy needs� Consolidation in the cement industry,

and likely impact on coal demand� Creating efficiencies in port

infrastructure, coal transport andlogistics

The development of the Indian economy is leading to a boom in coalimports as India fights to secure energy for its future. Major consumersare looking to new markets for supply, whilst Australia, Indonesia andSouth Africa are taking on increasing importance. New sources of coalsupplies are being sought as Indian coal consumers push to acquireoverseas mining rights, as well as seeking allocations of new domesticcoal blocks for development under newly liberalised licensing proposals.

For FY-06, Coal India is expected to produce 363mt of coal. However,current projections indicate that India could face an 80mt/year shortfall incoal supplies by 2011, compared to today’s estimated shortfall of 20mt.
