The Specs and quality of the Coal is really significant to be observed in trading Coal Products. You have to learn carefully from the Coal Professional, when they are talking and discussing about the Calorie of the Coal. The Coal from Sumatera appears to be high grade ranging around 6.3 to 7.00.
Stock pile of the Coal is really important to avoid delay in loading the Coal and for the purpose of determining the Laycan or the time when you will ask the Ship to move or berth to the Terminal Port, for loading the Coal because you will be exposed with Demurage and Dead Freight from the Mother Vessel which will pass by the Buyer to us as the Seller.
If we agree with an FOB arrangement, and delay occurred causing longer time for the agreed Loading time, this will result additional cost to the Vessel for parking the Vessel at the Port, whch will be passed to us by the Buyer of the Coal..

To minimize the risk you may try to request that your responsibility as the Seller in taking the Coal Product is up to the Stock Pile, where you will ask part of payment be made by the Buyer when the Coal reached the Stock Pile. We have several experiences, where we are being exposed with Demurage and Dead Freight due to the delay on our part in meeting the agreed volume of Coal to be loaded to the Vessel during the Laycan, since there are certain level of the Quality /Spec Coal which may reach the Rejection figure specified in the Coal Sales Contract .
As a Corporate Business lawyer involved in this situation we have to experienced upon the real reality occurring during the Loading and shipment of the Coal.
As you may now, even though the Grade is below the agreed level, frequently the Buyers insist you to continue Loading the Coal Products to the Vessel, event though Coal Spec reached the Rejection level shown in the Coal Sales Agreement , since it appears there are always Buyers or Endusers who will absorb such Coal products.
However, it may be that since the Coal Product is blended, the Calories are being mixed resulting negotiation upon the adjustment price to the agreed Coal Price, is conducted after a while from the time Shipment of the Coal had reached its destiny, in the sense that The Coal had been delivered by the Buyer to the Enduser, but adjustment of the Coal Price between the Seller and the Buyer had not been reached. .
Well the above are some elements that we have to observe in dealing with Selling, Loading the Coal Products experienced during the Loading time of the Coal.
