*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Indonesia is emerging as a major coke-exporting hub due to rapid growth in its coke production capacities. As a result, global coke trade flow will reshape as shipments from Indonesia surge at a time when exports from traditional exporting countries enter a period of decline. Indonesia’s coke supply growth will act as a major boon to coking coal producers.
