Quality of Coal ReservesCoal reserves found in Sindh are generally of very good quality contrary to popular misconceptions.Thar lignite coal, despite some drawbacks, is of far better quality than lignite coal used in most countriesfor power generation. Thar lignite has a stripping ratio of 6.6:1 and heating value of 5000 Btu/Ib. Acomparative analysis is given below:Comparison of Thar Coal with Other Coal ReservesDepositTharNeyvelli, IndiaKosovoRhenish Area, GermanyHambach, GermanyHungaryGreeceStripping Ratio (m2 : t) Heating Value (Btu/lb)6.5 : 15,0007:15,2001 : 133504.9 : 138306.3 : 145109 : 1305010 : 12159A complete chemical analysis of coal reserves found in various parts of Sindh is given below:ANALYSISCOALFIELDMoisture%VolatileMatter %FixedCarbon %Ash % Sulphur %CalorificValue(Btu/Lb)RANKThar 46.77 23.42 16.66 6.24 1.16 5774 Lignite BSonda-Jherruk34 27.9 25.2 151.0to 2.826762to11029Lignite A toBituminous CLakhra 28.9 28 25.2 184.7to7.04622to 7552Lignite tosub-BituminousBadin15.4to 29.829.8to 39.831.0to 36.68.2to 14.63.4to 7.46740to 1100Lignite A tosub-BituminousSindh - The Land of Endless Opportunities
The volume and quality of Thar coal reserves have been confirmed by the following national andinternational bodies:1. United States Geological Survey 2. RWE, Germany3. Shenhua Group Corporation, China 4. Oracle Coalfields, UK.5. Sindh Engro Coal Mining Company 6. Pakistan Geological Survey7. Sindh Coal AuthorityMarket AnalysisPakistan’s energy needs are being met by hydroelectricity and thermal power plants run on importedfurnace oil and indigenous natural gas. The seasonal variations as well as reduction in the flow of riverwater, dwindling gas reserves in the country, and skyrocketing prices of petroleum products in the worldmarket have given rise to dramatic reduction in generation and supply of electricity in the face ofburgeoning demand for electricity. The nuclear energy being generated is in small amounts. The endresult is the prevailing power crisis in the country manifested in the form of expensive electricity, whichhas destroyed competitiveness of indigenous industrial units, and frequent power outages and powerrationing across the country.There is now realization in Pakistan that the only way out of the present energy crisis is optimal andspeedy utilization of coal reserves of Sindh particularly those of Thar coalfield. This is the reason whyGovernment of Pakistan has established Thar Coal & Energy Board (TCEB) to expedite developmentof Thar coal reserves. In fact, the Prime Minister of Pakistan has issued directives that in the future allthermal power plants shall utilize coal from Thar and the existing power plants will be retrofitted to allowuse of coal from Thar. In addition, coal from Thar once mined will be used in cement factories and willalso used to produce various types of liquid fuels. Moreover, coal from is desperately needed fordomestic heating purposes in northern parts of Pakistan where because of shortage of coal and naturalgas, currently precious forests are being cut to supply firewood. Thus, domestic and foreign demandfor coal from Sindh is vast and assured.Enabling EnvironmentAn enabling environment has been created by the Government of Sindh for attracting and retaininginvestments in Thar coal projects as under:Incentives• 20% (dollar-based) internal rate of return (IRR) is guaranteed to firms that achieve financial closebefore31st December, 2015 for mining and power generation based on indigenous coal andadditional0.5% IRR will be given to firms that achieve financial close by 31st December, 2014.• Full repatriation of capital, capital gains, dividends, and profits allowed.Sindh - The Land of Endless Opportunities
