PT Wira Semesta was established in Jakarta, Indonesia
in mid-2011, functioning as a leading sales agent for metallurgical/steam coal. We have maintained an independent sales role in the coal and coke market for steel, nickel, utility, sea sand dredging, and industrial applications. In addition, we provide coal, coke, steel, nickel logistics services, and coal and coke consulting services, sea sand dredging and coal and coke consulting services in the form of market analysis, raw materials analysis, and specification analysis and availability.
Steam coal, used in the production of electricity, is sold primarily on the basis of its BTUs, sulfur and ash content. New environmental regulations have complicated the purchasers' coal supply portfolio by placing a premium on low sulfur coals. Through our extensive knowledge of coal seam specifications and coal producers, PT Wira Semesta has become a valued partner by those seeking to enhance their coal supply portfolio.
Metallurgical coal, or coking coal, is used in the process of producing coke, and is sold on the basis of its carbon, sulfur, ash and volatile content.
Differing coals can be blended to produce the right range of coke specifications. PT Wira Semesta, through its knowledge of the coking process, is an experienced evaluator of metallurgical coals and their value in the coal market.
Coke is made from low ash, sulfur and phosphorus coking coals, which have certain physical properties that cause them to soften, liquefy and then re-solidify into hard but porous lumps when heated in the absence of air. A coke's value is based upon is moisture, ash, sizing, carbon, stability and volatile content.
