Import Coking Coal — Buy in wholesale FOB from Supplier in Estonia

Coking Coal is a metallurgical grade coal used for coke production. The supplied material complies with the supplier’s listed maximum humidity of 7.9%, ash (air‑dry) 8.4%, ash (dry basis) 8.6%, total sulphur (air‑dry) 0.46% and dry 0.47%, volatile matter (air‑dry) up to 34.9% and dry‑ash‑free up to 38.1%, water‑soluble substances not exceeding 0.6%, phosphorus not more than 0.051%, an FSI of 8.5 and a calorific power of at least 8 228 kcal kg⁻¹. The shipment size is offered at 110 000 mt total, with a minimum monthly allocation of 50 000 mt. The product is sourced from Russian mines and is intended for metallurgical coke ovens. Delivery is quoted on a CIF ASWP basis.

In the global coking‑coal market the listed moisture ceiling of 7.9% sits within the typical range of 5 - 10% for low‑volatile coals, while the ash limits are comparable to the industry standard of up to 12% on a dry basis. An FSI of 8.5 positions the coal in the medium‑grade segment, where values between 7 and 9 are common for steel‑making feedstock. Volatile matter levels of 34‑38% are typical for semi‑soft coking coals, balancing reactivity and strength of the resulting coke. These parameters together influence the coke quality, such as compressive strength and reactivity, which are critical for blast‑furnace operation.

Primary buyers are integrated steel producers and dedicated coke plants that require consistent calorific value and low sulphur to meet emission standards. The supplier requires a twelve‑month minimum contract, with payment by irrevocable LC or bank guarantee against shipping documents at the loading port. Bulk handling is arranged via rail to the Baltic port and onward by sea, with third‑party inspection at the buyer’s expense. Prospective importers should confirm the exact allocation, LC terms, and any required certifications before issuing a purchase order.

Stc-Shahdezh Trade Center is located at Suur‑Karja 2, 10140 Tallinn, Estonia. It is listed with a harbour‑tier verification but currently shows a zero response rate, indicating no recent replies to inquiries. The supplier focuses on exporting Russian coking coal to international markets.

The company structures contracts with a twelve‑month minimum term, accepts payment by LC or bank guarantee, and arranges transport by rail to Baltic ports followed by sea freight. Inspection is performed by a third‑party agency at the buyer’s cost, and the shipment is typically loaded within twenty days after receipt of the LC or guarantee.
