US producers are shifting their focus overseas to find new markets. Growing economies in Asia are lucrative, but coal producers in the Americas are facing challenges to make commercial inroads.
US exporters face additional hurdles as growth in international coal trade is straining the capacity of America’s ports and coal transportation infrastructure. Will infrastructure development keep pace with the growing demand and allow exporters to be competitive in international markets? Will international demand hold up? And what are the most favorable ways for US exporters to price their coal sales overseas?
The Argus Americas Coal Summit is the ideal forum for international coal buyers to secure supply lines, and for major producers to find new customers in overseas markets.
