At Stoilensky GOK, an NLMK Group enterprise, the restoration of the conveyor gallery for ore supply, which collapsed on September 7, continues. According to preliminary estimates, the restoration work will take place until September 23, that is, it will take up to 15 days from the start of work.
Currently, dismantling and dismantling of metal structures is underway. More than 200 employees of SGOK, NLMK and contractors are involved in the construction site. The work is carried out around the clock. In parallel with dismantling, the company receives materials for restoration: cable products, metal structures, components. In the near future, an enlarged assembly of metal structures will begin.
During the forced shutdown, scheduled repairs on other redistributions of SGOK have been postponed, in particular, part of the overhaul of the pelletizing plant, which was planned for October. The optimization of repairs will reduce the volume of losses in concentrate production in 2020, as well as increase production in 2021.
NLMK, the main consumer of SGOK's products, is provided with iron ore during the restoration work thanks to its own reserves and external supplies. The incident will not have an impact on NLMK's steel and rolled products production. >
An employee of Stoilensky GOK and an employee of a contractor who received bruises from the collapse feel well and are at home on sick leave.
