These studies have included: identification and qualification of potential customers for new mine projects, mine cost analysis, competitor evaluation, transportation rate analysis, and projections of future tonnage and prices. Markets analyzed include both steam and coking coals in all regions of the U.S. and in all countries taking seaborne coal. In all regions, the analyses have looked in detail at the effects of potential new environmental regulations.
We perform numerous proprietary studies for individual clients evaluating specific mines, products, power plants, or ports. In addition, we also publish multi-client market forecasts on the U.S. Steam Coal Market and the International Coking and Steam Coal Markets.
Based on years of first-hand research, we have developed extensive data on the reserves, quality, mining costs, and transportation capabilities of all mines in the United States covering regions such as Central Appalachia, southwestern Pennsylvania, the Illinois Basin, the Powder River Basin, and the Rocky Mountains. We have similar databases for Canada, Colombia, Venezuela, Australia, South Africa, and Indonesia.
