Welcome to Sceats Coal Report

Let’s get to it:

• Coal indices whose ultimate level are set by a journalist, any trading platform where the beneficial owners have a specific directional interest in the coal price, are not an ideal basis for a coal benchmark.

• Coal trade information being purveyed by just two main companies is not ideal.

• The cost of coal information and data (which is given freely by the industry in the first place) is ever more expensive when sold back to the coal industry, and the limitations of use of that data causes industry players problems.

Sceats Coal Report will become the trusted source for coal market insights driven purely by data and mathematical precision. We pride ourselves on providing transparent and unbiased coal price assessments, free from external influence. Our methodology is grounded in rigorous mathematical analysis, ensuring the most accurate representation of coal prices in the market.

Sceats Coal Report can trace its roots back to March 1998, when – then called “Coal Swaps” newsletter – it proudly announced the launch of the API coal indices and specifically API#1. The headline of the May 1998 edition proudly announced the first trade linked to the API. It is in this pioneering spirit Sceats Coal Report continues the coal market’s incredible story.

Objective

Established with a clear objective, SCR endeavors to become a trusted and transparent authority in the coal market, dedicated to delivering accurate pricing information. Our primary goal is to serve as the premier source of reliable insights into the coal industry, empowering our clients to make well-informed decisions.

Recognizing a prevailing lack of trust between coal market participants, coal publications and trading platforms, SCR emerged to address the issue of fair and equitable benchmarking. Frustrated by market prices influenced by journalistic practices and the potential manipulation of trading platforms, our founder has collaborated with experienced coal investors to launch the Sceats Coal Report.
