Petroleum coke, classified under HS Code 2713 (Petroleum coke, petroleum bitumen and other residues of petroleum oils or of oils obtained from bituminous minerals.), rebounded in July with exports surging 52.9% MoM to $25.96M, while volume rose 18.5% to 146.1M kg. The unit price climbed 29% to $0.18/kg, recovering from June’s sharp 29.6% drop. This follows a volatile first half of 2025, where May’s 57% value spike was erased by June’s 43% contraction.

Colombia’s petroleum coke trade remains highly sensitive to price swings, with July’s recovery underscoring its cyclical nature.

Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

The Colombia Petroleum coke Export destinations reveal a striking Value-Volume Gap: China Mainland dominates volume (63.4% of weight) but contributes only 16.2% of value, signaling it as a bulk hub for low-margin raw material processing, while the U.S. (29.8% value share vs. 14.2% weight) acts as the premium market for higher-grade coke. Puerto Rico’s disproportionate value share (19.6% vs. 7.8% weight) suggests logistics optimization, likely re-exporting to mainland U.S. The supply chain is bifurcated—bulk flows to Asia for refining, while value concentrates in North America.

Colombia HS Code 2713 Breakdown & Value Logic

yTrade data reveals Petroleum bitumen (HS 2713200000) dominates Colombia's HS Code 2713 exports, capturing 83.83% of value despite accounting for just 36.61% of weight, signaling a premium per-unit yield. The remaining sub-codes, including uncalcined petroleum coke (HS 2713110000), drive bulk volume (63.39% weight) but lag in value (16.17%), highlighting a Colombia HS Code 2713 Export market split between high-margin bitumen and low-cost bulk commodities. This duality suggests strategic prioritization of bitumen for value extraction, while coke serves as a volume filler.
