Company RUSAL will continue to work in Ukraine

Nov 2, 2019 by admin 0 Comments

The largest Russian aluminum company RUSAL will continue to work in Ukraine and has no plans to close its alumina plant in Ukraine Nikolaev, though he believes this asset is one of the most inefficient. About it journalists were reported today by the owner of the group "Basic element" and President of "RUSAL" Oleg Deripaska.
"In Ireland we plant about the same power, and gas for him we buy for the price of 200 US dollars (per thousand cubic meters), in Nikolaev at 340 U.S. dollars. It makes its products the most expensive in the system (RUSAL)," said Deripaska.
At the same time, the President of RUSAL said that the political crisis in Ukraine did not affect the activities located in the country of enterprises. The company believes that in the near future gas prices will be cheaper and the economic performance of the Nikolaev alumina refinery to improve.
"Close, we don't intend to. We have too much invested in the enterprise and its staff, and the plant is an important part of our company", said Deripaska.
The company has previously reported that the conserved part of the production capacity of aluminium at 650 thousand tons to maintain an optimal ratio of demand and supply in the market. The capacity of the Nikolaev aluminous plant is 1.6 million tons of alumina per year. The company employs about 1.5 thousand people.
In addition to this asset in Ukraine, RUSAL has the Zaporozhye aluminum combine (ZALK), which is idle since 2011. The company reported that ZALK, in connection with high tariffs for electricity, which led to the loss of the company, mothballed the smelter production in April 2011 and started production of aluminum rod, which was also stopped.
In November last year, the territory of the plant was blocked by soldiers of the volunteer battalion "Aydar", demanding to nationalise ZALK. 23 December 2014, Ukraine's Supreme court has maintained in force the decision of the Supreme economic court regarding the return to the state of 68.01 percent stake in Zap.
On February 26 in Dnipropetrovsk court of appeal granted the appeal of the Prosecutor of Zaporozhye region and quashed the decision of the Zaporozhye regional court on liquidation of PJSC "Zaporozhye production aluminum combine", agreeing with the Prosecutor's position regarding the lack of legal grounds for a compulsory stop of activity of the enterprise.

The recycling program will enliven the auto industry

Nov 2, 2019 by admin 0 Comments

The decline in production (by 1.8% in 2013) and demand for cars of the Russian brand once again prove the necessity of returning to the recycling program of old cars, consider the car manufacturers.
And during a recent meeting with the President of the Russian Federation stated and the acting head of the Nizhny Novgorod region Valery Shantsev, telling Vladimir Putin that the recycling program will help to increase the production of cars at the enterprises of the region at least 10 thousand units. The final decision on this matter is still pending, but, according to RSL the GAZ Group, the Ministry had already asked automakers suggestions on how should look like a new program. In the Ministry of industry and trade of the RSL this information is not confirmed nor denied.
The recycling program has already paved the way, and the last time (2010-2011) citizens used it actively, said the RSL first Vice-President GK Autospeccentre Aleksey Tuzov. The magnitude of the recycling grant, in connection with the economic situation in Russia, and the cost of Crimea, the state is unlikely to allocate more than 50 thousand rubles for the disposal of the same car. For Moscow, this amount is certainly small, but in the regions, I think the program will be popular. We expect economic growth in 2017, and if the government will support automakers now, by 2017 the situation in the domestic automobile industry will change radically.
According to Alexey Tuzov, a new program proposed to be conducted not in the whole country, but only in those regions where the enterprises producing cars. That is, in Moscow, Tatarstan, the Leningrad, Samara areas, etc. Current programme in contrast to the last will apply not only to private persons owning cars and light commercial vehicles (LCV), but also on legal entities, some of which have used trucks and buses.
The renewal of the programme is very timely and will help to support the market in the low season to stimulate sales and to contribute to the renewal of its fleet.
Among consumers, especially those living in the regions, the demand for it will, of course, because, as you know, in Russia there are more than 15 million cars over 10 years old. To compensate for discounts to dealers will have the local regional authorities. In turn, we actively supported the initiative of the government, which is now particularly relevant to the commercial vehicle segment, where there has been a noticeable decline in sales, said Alex Aces.
Yes, commercial vehicles are one of the most sensitive to a decrease in demand and now the market of commercial vehicles has fallen much deeper than in the segment of passenger cars (in January-April of 2014, a decline of 18%). By the way, on a regional recycling program in 2010-2011 in the Nizhny Novgorod region sold more than 5 thousand cars, including 722 car Siber and more than 4.3 thousand commercial vehicles.
Now is the right time to the recycling program of commercial vehicles. In a country critically outdated Park of LCVs, trucks, buses, and the decline in sales is strongest in the segment of commercial vehicles, announced RSL the GAZ Group, the program will provide a triple-effect: revive the economy, support demand, enhance traffic safety, improve the ecological environment.
Regarding the latter, our auto industry now produces models at least Euro-4 standard, in which the exhaust emissions significantly lower than those cars, which will be put into the scrap. If you take commercial vehicles, here in demand the car on methane, emissions of which are by default lower than that of the vehicle with a gasoline or diesel engine. And the Group GAS has already released the GAZelle NEXT with the engine Euro 5, which is certified to the EU (Russia has not test equipment for the evaluation of emission standards of vehicles such standards).
According to the CEO of the company Rusmet Victor Kovševnyj, under a recycling program should ideally get not only cars of all calibres, but also the railroad cars, agricultural machinery, ships, aircraft, tower cranes and even the so-called vertical transport elevators. The wear and tear of these vehicles in the country is huge: by 2020, a write-off will be 410 thousand cars, 2 thousand fishing vessels, river vessels 8 thousand, more than 200 thousand elevators, etc. the Recycling grants will increase the demand for new equipment. However, under such a large-scale program of recycling in Russia it is necessary to establish the mechanism of recycling. With more or less success until he applies to metal waste. Details of other materials of plastic, fabric, glass, wood, etc. go to the dump. Recycling of these wastes could take on a small business. Meanwhile in Russia of what is thrown, comes back to life only 0.4% waste.

The force of inertia

Nov 2, 2019 by admin 0 Comments

Despite the recession, world steel production has increased again. According to the World Steel Association (WSA), global steel production in October 2011 was just under 124,0 million tonnes at 0.9% more than in the previous month, so which lasted four months, the reduction in output in the global steel industry has been replaced by growth. However, due to the greater number of days in October than in September, average daily production actually decreased from 4.1 to 4.0 thousand tonnes As reported by WSA, the level of capacity utilization in the sector made in October of 76.5: this is the lowest figure for the current year.
However, it should be noted that despite the drop in prices for steel products and numerous reports about the scrapping of excess capacity in fact, the volume of production in October declined only slightly. Of the largest manufacturers of China and Taiwan have reduced the output of steel compared with the previous month. Obviously, the main consequences of the recent decisions about stop of blast furnaces and rolling mills will appear only in November-December.
In just the first ten months of 2011, in 64 countries, which submit their data in the WSA, produced 1259,1 million tons of steel, which is 8.1% or 94,6 million tonnes higher than in the same period a year ago. As before, most of the increase (76,3 million tons) accounted for four countries – China, India, Korea and Turkey. This Quartet has increased steel smelting by 11.3% in comparison with January-October last year, while the rest of the world increased its production of only 3.6%.
China for the first ten months of 2011, issued 582,3 million tons of steel, which is 10.9% more than in the same period a year ago. Recently, however, due to the downturn in the domestic market and reduction of volumes of export of Chinese steelmakers are forced to slow down. According to the national steel Association CISA, over the first decade of November, the daily average steel production in the country amounted to only 1,664 million tonnes, up 16.9% less than the record of the beginning of June. Obviously, this year, Chinese steel industry will not be able to take the milestone of 700 million tonnes.
In India, the growth for the first ten months was 8.9% compared to the previous year, but average monthly production exceeded 6 million tons So India finally came in fourth place in the world ranking steel producer, edging out Russia from 5.75 million tonnes in fifth place. Thus, unlike most other countries, in India, steelmakers continue to develop projects aimed at capacity expansion. In particular, in December this year during the visit of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin to new Delhi and NCR has to be signed the agreement between Severstal and Indian NMDC company about joint construction in Karnataka steel plant of 3 million tonnes per year.
Earlier, the Indian government planned the bringing of steelmaking capacity in the country to 120 million tons per year by 2012. Of course, these plans are not met, but now the national Ministry of metallurgical industry put the industry less ambitious but more realistic goal: 113 million tons per year by the end of March 2017.
Among the major steel producers continue to lead the growth rate of melting of Korea and Turkey, developing indicators, respectively, 20.0 and 19.1 per cent in comparison with January-October 2010. However, in both countries, metallurgists have some problems associated with the overflow of national markets and the deterioration in the external economic environment. Korean Posco has announced that it would reduce steel output in the coming months.
In the EU for ten months of 2011 it produced 3.6% more steel than during the same period a year ago. In this case, the main increase occurred in Italy and Germany. Currently, Germany has strengthened its position of economic (and political) leader of the EU, but in Italy, the economic problems are growing. However, the decline in steel production is expected in the near future across the EU.
At the same time, American companies don't reduce the issue. In January-October in the US was smelted 6.8% began more than a year ago. A reduction in output of long products was offset by the commissioning of three production lines in integrated mills. Yes, and the US economy is now in by far better shape than European.
Nevertheless, it is obvious that in November-December we should expect a reduction in steel production in the world. Due to the recession the demand for steel products decreased, so that metallurgists it is necessary to bring the volume of the issue in accordance with the real needs.
