Background

The construction of the terminal was completed in 1994.

In a 2007 presentation to investors Bumi Resources (the majority shareholder of Arutmin) stated that the terminal can handle "Handymax up to Capesize" ships, and has a shiploading capacity of 1.1 million tonnes per month. It also has a stockpile capacity of 600,000 tonnes."[1] The port is capable of handling 150,000 DWT coal bulk carriers.[2]

PT Arutmin Indonesia operates six surface coal mines: Senakin, Satui, Mulia coal mine, Batulicin, Asam Asam coal mine, Kintap coal mine. All are located near Arutmin’s North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal. Arutmin has two smaller ports which load coal from the Senakin coal mine onto self-discharging barges and another one to handle production from the Satui coal mine. Coal from the barges is then shipped out via the North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal. In 2013, Arutmin’s total coal mined reached 29.6 million tonnes.[3][4][5]

An industry report referred to 15.3 million tonnes of coal exported abroad from Pulau Laut coal terminal, it is assumed that this is jointly from the North Pulau Laut terminal as well as from the (South) Pulau Laut Coal Terminal.[6]
