The South Korean group bought 160 000 t of Australian bituminous coal with a minimum net calorific value of 5200kcal/kg from an Australian trader to be supplied from Clermont coal mines priced around US$54 free-on-board.
The utility also purchased 220 000 and 70 000 tonnes of Indonesian sub-bituminous coal with a minimum NCV of 4600kcal/kg from Glencore International AG and Flame S.A., respectively, priced under US$54 FOB.
Consignments will be loaded in July and shipped to the Taean port.
