7 Chinese Coal Value Chain 2 nd largest coal reserves behind U.S. Distribution of coal resources Lack of coking coal Quality deterioration of thermal coal Coal ProductionCoal Transport Coal Resources Coal Use 46% of global total 80% global fatalities in early 2000s Half by key SOEs, 1/3 by private mines Half by ultra-small mines in 1995 -> minimal 47%of global total half Chinese coal used for power generation, 9% for iron & steel, 7% for non-metal minerals, 5% for coal chemicals National coal consumption cap 48% of national coal output was shipped by rail 36% by major coastal ports 15% by inland Integrated railway + coastal marine transport Bottlenecks

Coal Exports Peaked in 2003 China encouraged coal exports Source: NBS and China Customs. Chinese Coal Imports/Exports Global coal trade is about one third of China’s domestic coal market. China became a net coal importer in 2009. China passed Japan as the world’s largest coal importer in 2011. China’s coal imports in 2012 up 58%, reaching 289Mt.

At least 6 coal export facilities proposed along the West Coast with aggregate capacity at >120 Mt/annum

Source: Energy Review. Sources of China’s Gas Supply bcm Can conventional fields deliver as expected? Problem with CBM development. Is coal-to-gas compatible with China’s conservation goals? Can shale gas be kicked off? Can pipeline gas deal with Russia overcome pricing dispute? Is U.S. a potential LNG supplier?
