Tangshan port restrictions: The beginning of the end for coking coal imports into China?
This report is currently unavailable
Report summary
On 16th July, both Caofeidian and Jingtang ports in northern China verbally notified a halt to custom declarations. These ports are critical to the metallurgical coal trade into China, raising fears about the near-term future of the seaborne coking coal trade. But, the subsequent custom clearance bans at Rizhao and Qingdao ports in Shandong -and worsening clearance delays at Fangcheng port - suggests that, as usual, the thermal coal trade is the major target. And the focus on traders should also allay fears that some widespread ban is in the offing.
