    Tata Steel maakt rails voor trein naar Mekka

    Gepubliceerd op 8 aug 2013 om 12:43 | Views: 943

    MUMBAI (AFN) - Staalreus Tata Steel heeft een grote opdracht binnengesleept voor het leveren van de rails voor een hogesnelheidslijn tussen de Saudische steden Mekka en Medina. Dat heeft de eigenaar van onder meer de vroegere Hoogovens in IJmuiden donderdag bekendgemaakt.

    Tussen de twee voor moslims heilige steden wordt een spoorlijn van meer dan 400 kilometer aangelegd, dwars door de woestijn. Hiervoor zal Tata in zijn fabriek bij het Britse Scunthorpe in totaal 60.000 ton staal vervaardigen. Dat wordt vervolgens in Noord-Frankrijk tot raildelen met een lengte van 25 meter gesmeed.

    Het is de bedoeling dat de spoorlijn eind 2014 of begin 2015 in gebruik kan worden genomen. Dan zullen er naar verwachting 160.000 mensen, voornamelijk pelgrims, per dag met een snelheid van 320 kilometer per uur vervoerd worden. Behalve in Mekka en Medina zal de lijn ook haltes krijgen in de havenstad Jeddah en in de nog in aanbouw zijnde plaats Koning Abdullahstad.

    Copasa

    Het hele hogesnelheidstreinproject, dat in 2009 al van start ging, kost de Arabieren meer dan 12 miljard euro. De Spaanse fabrikanten Copasa, Imathia en OHL zijn verantwoordelijk voor de aanleg van het spoor.

    In Saudi-Arabië wordt momenteel veel in infrastructuur geïnvesteerd. Onlangs meldde de Nederlandse aannemer Strukton mee te gaan bouwen aan drie volledig geautomatiseerde en onbemande metrolijnen in de hoofdstad Riyadh. Ingenieurs van het Nederlandse Royal HaskoningDHV haalden onlangs een order binnen voor het ontwerpen van het eerste openbaarvervoersysteem van het oostelijk gelegen Dammam.

    Japanese steel giants to try out Hydrogen Blast Furnace to cut emissions

    Nikkei reported that Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corp and three other steel companies announced that they will construct an experimental hydrogen-fueled blast furnace to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

    The furnace is part of a project by the Japan Iron and Steel Federation, on behalf of the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization, to develop new steelmaking technologies.

    The aim is to slash industry CO2 emissions 30% by 2030, with 10% coming from a partial changeover from coal to hydrogen.

    While just four companies use blast furnaces, they account for 15% of the nation's total CO2 emissions.

    The new furnace, to be built at a Nippon Steel facility in Kimitsu, Chiba Prefecture, will produce 10,000 tons of steel a day. Construction will cost 15 billion yen over five years, with about 2.7 billion yen budgeted for fiscal 2013. Completion is planned for fiscal 2015, and a test run will last until fiscal 2017.

    Thankfully steel market in China allays fears of relapse

    Steel price in China revived by 1% after scare in end July. Affirming the belief that market was in for short term correction after a month long rally in July euphoria seemed to be vanishing.

    It was believed that the stock replenishment had been accomplished by traders stockiest and scope for further rally was exhausted. Mills though maintained the tempo with price hike in August. Chinese steel mills maintained strong run rates as their order books improved, boosting appetite for iron ore and driving up spot prices of the raw material.
    Chinese steel mill margins have improved in July so they have ramped up production, boosting appetite for the raw material. Imports of iron ore jumped to 73.14 million tonnes, up 17 percent from a four-month low of 62.3 million tonnes in June and better than previous best of 70.94 million tonnes hit in December 2012. World Steel Association reports China raised steel production by 4.6% in June 2013 to 64.7 mt. H1 output came up by 7.4% y-o-y to 389.9 mt. Crude steel production for the year is expected climb up 6% to 790 million tonnes from 716 million tonnes in 2012.

    Remarkably Chinese PMI nos. have remained stable.The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index is up 4 percent in the past week and hovering at three-week highs, spurred by positive economic data. The governments twin Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) reports for the manufacturing and non-manufacturing sectors for July both came in better than expected, raising hopes that the slowing economy may be getting some of its growth back.

    Chinese stocks have been steadily climbing over the last couple of weeks, after the government unveiled a "mini stimulus" package in late July to boost business investment.

    Construction activity picks up in late Q3 and tapers off with onset of winter. Hence the buoyancy is not unfounded but the dilemma remained about its sustainability in gloomy outlook.

    MIIT steps up efforts to tackle steel overcapacity in China

    An insider from China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has disclosed that the ministry is carrying out checks on a second batch of domestic steel enterprises to see whether they conform with required standards in the Chinese steel sector. The work in question will be completed by the end of November this year, with the Chinese steelmakers that fail to meet standards to be blacklisted. The MIIT thus aims to tackle the steel overcapacity issue in China. The standards in question include standards relating to the environment, efficient energy use, use of modern technology, product quality and production safety.

    The company official stated that "As of April 2 this year, 45 large and medium-sized steelmakers in China, including Baosteel, Shougang, Shagang and others, have been subject to checks. The total output capacities of the given steelmakers account for 41.4% of total steel output capacity in China."

    The insider added that the MIIT has now started to check a second batch of steelmakers, following which steelmakers accounting for 80% of total Chinese steel output capacity will have been examined to see if they meet the required standards.

    As for the steel enterprises which comply with the standards, the MIIT will work with China's General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine with the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the National Development and Reform Commission to provide support for their development, especially in regard to cross-regional mergers and reorganization and technological upgrades, with the aim of optimizing industrial structure and regional distribution.

    With regard to the steel enterprises which do not meet the standards, the MIIT will use economic measures such as differential electricity pricing, tight credit and loan policies and legal restrictions to force them to withdraw from steelmaking.

    China July iron ore imports hit record high

    Reuters reported that China's iron ore imports surged to a record high in July as domestic buyers replenished their inventories to meet surprisingly resilient steel demand during the summer.

    Customs data showed that imports of iron ore jumped to 73.14 million tonnes up 17% from 4 month low of 62.3 million tonnes in June.

    Analysts were surprised by the extent of the climb, especially after export figures from Australia's Port Hedland showed a slight decline over the month.

    Mr Graeme Train analyst with Macquarie in Shanghai said that "It's really big shipments from Australia weren't actually that good and I would think it has something to do with the fact that the June number was low and there was some catch-up tonnage coming through. But the data also reflected healthy underlying demand in the Chinese steel sector, by far the world's biggest despite persistent complaints about oversupply and weak prices.”

    Mr Train said that "The steel market looks really healthy demand has clearly beaten everyone's expectations. The consensus is that there will be a slowdown in the second half but we are seeing steel destocking continuing so there are no obvious signs the market is out of balance at this stage and any slowdown will be a lot more moderate than people expect."

    Chinese steel mills maintained strong run rates as their orderbooks improved, boosting appetite for iron ore and driving up spot prices of the raw material IO62-CNI=SI by 12 percent to above USD 130 per tonne last month.

    Mr Judy Zhu analyst with Standard Chartered Bank in Shanghai said that "Chinese steel mill margins have improved in July so they have ramped up production, boosting appetite for the raw material. Zhu expected the average iron ore prices to stand at USD 127 per tonne in the Q4.

    ArcelorMittal restarts its steel expansion project in Brazil

    ArcelorMittal announced that it is to restart an expansion project at its Monlevade and Juiz de Fora sites in Brazil, which will increase production capacity from 3.75 to 4.9 million tonnes a year.

    Mr Aditya Mittal CFO of ArcelorMittal said that "We now see that demand is coming back in Brazil; it is slower than we had anticipated but it is coming back and that is why we have restarted the wire rod mill expansion which is a US USD 180 million project."

    The expansion was first announced in 2007 but paused in 2009 due to the economic crisis and weak demand. The project is expected to be completed in two phases with the first phase focused mainly on downstream facilities. Start-up is expected in 2015. The upstream portion of the investment remains on hold.

    However, Monlevade will produce 1.05 million tonnes per year of coil thanks to a capex investment of US USD 140 million. Rebar capacity at Juiz de Fora will also be increased from 50,000 tonne to 400,000 tonnes a year and the site's melt shop will produce an extra 200,000 tonnes of billets per year using its new ladle and new sixth strand in the continuous caster.

    Meanwhile, ArcelorMittal Monlevade is located in João Monlevade, 80km from Belo Horizonte, the state capital of Minas Gerais and 11 km from Mina do Andrade - the site's iron ore supplier. Monlevade produces for domestic and international markets. Products include low and high carbon wire rod for industrial applications, such as springs, steel cord, bead wire and steel wool.

    US steel exports decrease in H1 2013 - AIIS

    According to government data, US steel exports declined in June compared to May by 8.5%.

    Mr Phelps, president of AIIS said that "Exports declined in even' major steel export market in June, with over 86,000 tonne of the decline of over 98,000 tonne total represented by lower exports to NAFTA and other Western Hemisphere markets. The declines reflect weakened conditions in these markets especially in NAFTA at the tine orderswete taken. Exports to other smaller export markets likewise declined in June."

    For the H2 of 2013 compared to 2012, steel exports declined by 10.9%, including a 9.1% decline in June 2013 compared to June 2012.

    Mr Phelps said that "The reduction in exports for the H1 of 2013 shows the weakened conditions in many steel markets, as all markets posted declines for fie H1. With stronger market conditions at this time in the NAFTA region, NAFTA exports could show some improvement incoming months provided that the cunent conditions show some staying power."

    ArcelorMittal awards Siemens Metals on converter 2 equipped with new cooling stack

    ArcelorMittal Eisenhüttenstadt has awarded Siemens Metals Technologies an order to equip the off-gas cleaning system on LD converter 2 with a new cooling stack. This will also involve the installation of a new dual flow nozzle spray system which will facilitate better conditioning of the converter offgas.

    The new cooling stack is due to go in operation in June 2014. The order also includes an option to install a cooling stack on converter 1.

    Siemens will be responsible for the design, supply and installation of the Simetal ECO Prime Cooler, the dual flow nozzle spray system for the evaporative cooler, and a new hood car. The converter offgas will be collected in the cooling stack installed immediately above the converter.

    The gas must be cooled and pre-cleaned to prevent damage to downstream facilities. The waste heat transferred from the converter gas during cooling will be used to partially vaporize circulating water to produce saturated steam.

    Siemens will install new dual flow sprays to atomize the water in the evaporative cooler. These will enable improved conditioning of the dust in the converter gas and thus allow optimum operation of the evaporation cooler thanks to precise regulation of the water-steam mixture. A traversable, locking mechanical seal is also part of the scope of supply. It requires little maintenance and has a long service life.

    Vale expects a balanced ore market

    Mr Mr Jose Carlos Martins executive director for Iron Products and Strategy of Vale said that the Brazilian mining company Vale is expecting supply and demand for iron ore to remain balanced this year and in the next.

    Mr Martins said that “We are working with the hypothesis of balanced supply and demand, both of which should go up. Global output should not hike in such a way as to cause prices to lose sustainability. Iron ore prices have remained bearish since the year started, due to lower than expected demand from China. The supply of iron ore is going up in Australia and China, going down in India, and remaining level in Brazil.”

    Mr Martins said that Vale’s output has been stable for some years now, but the company is bracing for a new growth spurt due to new operations due to begin and logistics investments. Although iron ore prices have been highly volatile in the past two to three years, they have always remained within a certain range. Currently, the ore sells for USD 135 per tonne and the executive believes the price is strongly sustainable at the USD 130 range. There may be some reduction, concerning the USD 135 price point.”

    ArcelorMittal Dommeldange creates new wind turbine in Luxembourg

    ArcelorMittal Dommeldange in Luxembourg has partnered up with local wind tower manufacturer Smart Wind Integrated Renewables Lëtzebuerg to produce a new generation of vertical axis wind turbines.

    The new generation of vertical axis wind turbine, the Estreya L2, will be entirely manufactured in our Dommeldange workshops. The Long Carbon Europe site will also help further improve the turbines in the future, offering extensive support both in terms of design and quality.

    Mr Joseph Hess CEO of Swirl said that “It all started with a blank piece of paper. We wanted to create a wind turbine that would offer the best performance, and be reliable and safe at the same time. We had several requirements, as rapid assembly and installation times, having the lowest possible number of components and keeping costs low. In 2012, we ended up with a 3 blade design.”

    Mr Hess said that “When looking for a fabrication partner, we opted for ArcelorMittal Dommeldange for its extensive know-how and its many years of experience in high quality project execution. From good machinery to experienced people eager to perform high quality work we found everything we needed in Dommeldange.”

    Meanwhile, ArcelorMittal’s technical and commercial teams are currently analysing whether the towers could be replaced with lattice towers using steel produced in ArcelorMittal Rodange’s site, also located in Luxembourg, to build on this partnership.

    Ha Voda,

    Knap en mooi hoe je altijd al die nieuwsberichten weet te vinden, bedankt!
    Hij gaat goed hè de laatste tijd, ik zit (al maanden lang) in de AM en Aperam opties en het begint nu te lopen....

    Afgelopen week leek het alsof het opstarten van de hoogovens in Spanje het startsein gaf voor deze "rally" al heeft het natuurlijk met meer factoren te maken.

    Succes deze week!

    Groeten,
    Max
