Data from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) until July realized nickel ore exports were more than 50% of the recommendations submitted by mining companies. "This year, up to July, 13,263,907 tons have been exported," said Yunus Saefulhak, Director of Mineral Exploitation of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) after a press conference in Jakarta, Monday (2/9).
This year the government's exportrecommendations reached 23,649,136 tons. The number actually decreased compared to the recommendations given in 2018 of 28,006,956 tons.
According to Yunus, the realization of exports this year will not decline or at least the same as last year, which reached 20,091,198 tons. "This year, the estimates are around 20 million tons," Yunus said.
Bambang Gatot Ariyono, Director General of Mineral and Coal at the Ministry of ESDM, said that since the export ban was imposed in 2017, the government had given an export recommendation of 76 million tons, but the realization was not up to 50%. "The realization was 38.2 million tons from January 2017 to July 2019," said Bambang.
He added that the government did not immediately stop the export of low grade nickel, because it was still given a transition period of approximately four months. While developing an operational strategy next year, nickel producers are still allowed to export until the end of this year.

Meidy said miners can sell their ore to local smelters, but at a lower price than on the national market. Payment by local smelters is also usually late.
This means miners that have yet to complete their smelters get less revenue, which makes it more difficult for them to pay for smelter construction.

Meidy said the potential losses to be borne by national smelters who were building 16 smelter units were estimated at 960 million US dollars, while the potential loss of state revenue or foreign exchange for stopping the construction of 16 smelters after 2022 was 261,273,600 US dollars per year of smelter product output in the form of NPI/FeNi. Even the potential loss of foreign exchange earnings from nickel ore exports until 2022 amounted to US$ 259,796,823.
"Even in the current conditions, domesticnickel mining businesses have felt defeated by the regulation of the level of smelter entrepreneurs who have been established in Indonesia, because they do not use surveyors recommended by the government, but instead use surveyors from their side," Meidy said in Jakarta, Monday (2/9).
Meidy said, the comparison of local prices with export prices also became a separate issue. The difference between the two could reach US$ 20 per ton, which should be a profit for nickel mine entrepreneurs to increase their investment, including the construction of smelters.
Meidy conveyed that at this time there was also a high level of jealousy for national nickel businesses with foreign smelters, where national smelter entrepreneurs were required to pay 4 percent royalty ofoutput of FeNI/NPI products (Presidential Regulation No. 9 of 2012), whereas for foreign smelters with permits issued by the ministry of industry (IUI) are not subject to royalty obligations.
"There are so many facilities provided to foreign smelters that are not obtained by national entrepreneurs," Meidy said.
Meidy is of the view that if the ban on nickel ore exports takes effect this year, while the terms of the trade system and pricing of domestic nickel ore have not yet been determined, it is certain that many IUPs owned by national entrepreneurs will be sold to foreign parties who have smelters.
Meidy said the potential losses to be borne by national smelters who were building 16 smelter units were estimated at 960 million US dollars, while the potential loss of state revenue or foreign exchange for stopping the

"Even in the current conditions, domestic nickel mining businesses have felt defeated by the regulation of the level of smelter entrepreneurs who have been established in Indonesia, because they do not use surveyors recommended by the government, but instead use surveyors from their side,"
said in Jakarta, Monday (2/9).
Meidy said, the comparison of local prices with export prices also became a separate issue. The difference between the two could reach US$ 20 per ton, which should be a profit for nickel mine entrepreneurs to

Meidy conveyed that at this time there was also a high level of jealousy for national nickel businesses with foreign smelters, where national smelter entrepreneurs were required to pay 4 percent royalty of the output of FeNI/NPI products (Presidential Regulation No. 9 of 2012), whereas for foreign smelters with permits issued by the ministry of industry (IUI) are not subject to

Pun potensi kehilangan pendapatan devisa dari ekspor bijih nikel sampai 2022 sebesardolar AS.
"Pada kondisi saat ini pun, para pelaku usaha tambang nikel domestik sudah merasa kalah oleh pengaturan kadar dari pengusaha smelter yang sudah berdiri di Indonesia,tidak menggunakan surveyor yang direkomendasikan pemerintah, tetapi menggunakan surveyor dari pihak mereka," ujar Meidy di Jakarta, Senin (2/9).
Kata Meidy, perbandingan harga lokal dengan harga ekspor juga menjadi persoalan tersendiri. Selisih antara keduanya bisa mencapai 20 dolar AS per ton, yang seharusnya bisa menjadi keuntungan pengusaha tambang nikel untuk meningkatkan investasinya termasuk dalam pembangunan smelter
Meidy menyampaikan saat ini juga terjadi kecemburuan yang tinggi bagusaha nikel nasional dengan smelter asing, di mana bagi pengusaha smelter nasional di wajibkan royalti 4 persen dari output produk FeNI/NPI (Perpres No 9 Tahun 2012), sedangkan bagi smelter asing dengan izin yang dikeluarkan oleh kementerian trian (IUI) tidak dibebankan kewajiban royalti.
"Begitu banyaknya fasiltas kemudahan yang diberikan kepada smelter asing yang tidak didapat oleh pengusaha nasional," ucap Meidy.
Meidy berpandangan apabila pelarangan ekspor bijih nikel berlaku padasedangkan ketentuan tata niaga danpenetapan harga bijih nikel domestik belum ditentukan, bisa dipastikan akan banyak IUP yang dimiliki oleh pengusaha nasional akan dijual ke pihak asing yang telah memiliki smelter.

"Who says this price is too low? I met a smelter businessman, they say it's not like that. Now this is what we are fixing too. We call each other to meet each other," said Bambang.
Bambang further explained that the meeting would not be intended to pressure one of the parties, but rather to ensure the business ran smoothly business to business. In principle, the government needs both parties to develop the potential of the country's tin resources. One side of a nickel miner must be treated well in order to survive and produce sustainably, and get a profit. While on the other hand smelter entrepreneurs must also be empowered because of their function to process and purify and benefit.

Goldman Sachs in a note on Sundpredicted that the price of nickel on the LME exchange could touch the level of US$ 20,000 in the next 3 months, a level not seen since May 2014, reported by Reuters.
Indonesia's export ban will remove about 10% of the world's nickel supply and "create substantial supply uncertainty," the investment bank wrote in its note.
In the same note also written that after touching the level of US$ 20,000/ton, the price of nickel will fall to US$ 18,000/ton in six months, and towards US$ 16,000/ton in the next 12 months.
The price increase is based on the assumption that Indonesia will fully ban nickel ore exports by the end of this year. The reason is, until this moment there has been no official document that notifies if there are exceptions to the ban.
In the world metal exchange, theNovember delivery nickel contract at the London Metal Exchange (LME) yesterday even rose 5.3% to as low as US$ 18,850/ton which is the highest level in almost 5 years. Although finally closed with a thin gain of 0.89% to US$ 18,060/ton.
Meanwhile, the most widely traded nickel futures contract on the Shanghai Futures Exchange, namely SNIcv1, shot 6.5% to CNY 145,850/ton or US$ 20,563.11/ton which is the highest record of all time, as reported by Reuters.
For information, Indonesia is the world's largest producer of nickel ore which accounted for 26% of global nickel ore supply last year, according to data from the International Nickel Study Group, as reported by Reuters.
