    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    9 Aug, 2022, 6:27 am

    US Department of Commerce & the US International Trade Commission determinations that revocation of the antidumping duty orders on Stainless Steel Plate in Coils from Belgium, South Africa and Taiwan and the countervailing duty order on Stainless Steel Plate in Coils from South Africa would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping, net countervailable subsidies, and material injury to an industry in the United States, US DOC has published a notice of continuation of the AD orders and the CAT order. US DOC has ordered the continuation of the Orders on SSPC from Belgium, South Africa, and Taiwan.

    US Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect AD and CAT cash deposits at the rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject merchandise.

    On 11 May 1999, US DOC published the CVD Order on Stainless Steel Plate in Coils from South Africa & on 21 1999, US DOC published the AD Orders on Stainless Steel Plate in Coils from Belgium, South Africa and Taiwan On 1 December 2021, US DOC published the initiation of the fourth sunset reviews of the orders and the ITC instituted its review of the orders. As a result of its reviews, US DOC determined that that revocation of the AD Orders would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and that revocation of the CVD Order would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of countervailable subsidies. US DOC, therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins and net countervailable subsidy rates likely to prevail should the Orders be revoked. On 25 July 2022, the ITC published its determination that revocation of the Orders would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.

    The product covered by these Orders is certain stainless steel plate in coils. Stainless steel is alloy steel containing, by weight, 1.2% or less of carbon and 10.5% or more of chromium, with or without other elements. The subject plate products are flat-rolled products, 254mm or over in width and 4.75mm or more in thickness, in coils, and annealed or otherwise heat treated and pickled or otherwise descaled. The subject plate may also be further processed provided that it maintains the specified dimensions of plate following such processing. Excluded from the scope of these Orders are the following

    Mannesmann Grossrohr Delivers Pipe for WAL LNG Pipeline in Germany

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    9 Aug, 2022, 6:30 am

    The construction of e Wilhelmshaven connecting pipeline that will import LNG via Wilhelmshaven and transport it to storage caverns in Etzel in the municipality of Friedeburg in Lower Saxon in Germany has commenced. The first pipes from Salzgitter AG’s subsidiary Mannesmann Grossrohr are already being supplied. Since the almost 30 km long pipeline is to be taken into operation before the year is out, the pipes were produced in the large-diameter pipe mill in Salzgitter before the end of the second quarter.

    Salzgitter AG subsidiary Mannesmann Line Pipe GmbH is contributing additional pipes for the LNG project.

    The pipeline from the new LNG terminal in Wilhelmshaven leads close by the Etzel cavern facility where it will be integrated into the existing German gas pipeline network. From there, initially up to 10 billion cubic meters of gas a year can be transported from the North Sea coast to the south and east of the country. In line with OGE requirements, the MGR line pipes are manufactured so as to enable hydrogen to be transported via the pipeline in the future.

    Sumitomo Develops Steel Wall Climbing Robots for Industrial Use

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    9 Aug, 2022, 6:32 am

    Shinagawa City Tokyo headquartered Sumitomo Heavy Industries has developed a novel robot capable of traveling over curved steel walls by magnetic adhesion. The achievement is part of a robot development project at Technology Research Center. In this project, Sumitomo invented a novel spherical wheel containing a magnet that can be rotated around two axes. Using this design, Sumitomo have developed a robot that can adapt and travel over curved surfaces that were not possible with conventional robots. In addition to traveling over curved walls, the new robot can also easily attach and detach from walls by changing the magnetic force direction and climb over corners without the need of any complicated controls. At present, Sumitomo is developing practical applications of the robot in inspection, cutting, and arc welding at manufacturing sites.

    In manufacturing of large steel structures, tasks such as welding at heights and on curved surfaces are difficult to automate and require advanced skills. The newly developed robot can be used for such tasks and is expected to reduce the physical burden on workers, thereby creating safer and smarter next generation manufacturing sites.

    Wheeled robots with magnetic adhesion are well known in manufacturing and maintenance of large steel structures like ships and industrial facilities. Most conventional wall climbing robots are designed for flat surfaces. To adapt such robots to curved surfaces, it is necessary to either make the robot smaller than the curvature of the surface, or design the robot to fit a particular surface shape and traveling direction. This means that these robots are limited in the range of surfaces they can travel on, the tasks they can perform, and the types of tools they can mount.

    9 Aug, 2022, 6:40 am

    China’s second largest state owned steel maker HBIS Group & global auto giant BMW Group have signed Memorandum of Cooperation on Building Green Low Carbon Steel Supply Chain in Shenyang in China. Both sides have agreed to carry out comprehensive and long-term cooperation in sustainable development and jointly build a green low carbon steel supply chain. Going forward, the two sides will work together to create a model of cooperation featuring Deep Integration and Green Development of industrial chains, and provide better solutions to global climate change and make greater contributions.

    According to the MoU, the two sides will jointly build the supply chain of green low carbon steel materials, develop low-carbon and green automotive steel materials and complete relevant certification based on the research and development and use of green and low carbon steel materials and BMW's low-carbon base on steel materials. From mid-2023, BMW's Shenyang production base will gradually use the HBIS low-carbon automotive steel for its mass-produced models. These low carbon steels produce 10-30% less CO2 than conventional steels. From 2026, BMW Shenyang production base will start to use low carbon steels in the mass production process of whole vehicles. Based on processes such as green electricity and electric furnaces, the production of low carbon steels will gradually reduce CO2 emissions by 95%. Under the current procurement plan, CO2 emissions are expected to be reduced by about 230,000 tonnes per year from 2026.

    HBIS and BMW will also jointly establish a docking and exchange mechanism, actively promote the integration of talent, strategy, management and culture, and maintain and develop their respective leading advantages in the industry. In the whole life cycle of automotive steel products, both sides will conduct periodic evaluation of carbon emission data in a fully transparent manner, including from iron ore mining to steel products in HBIS subsidiaries, and from automotive steel to car scrapping in BMW Brilliance, these carbon emission data will be recorded one by one. The two sides will actively carry out research, development and application of carbon negative technologies such as clean energy, and commit to the development of carbon neutral automotive steel.

    HBIS subsidiaries, Zhangxuan Tech took the lead in launching the world's first 1.2 million tonnes hydrogen metallurgy demonstration project. Tangsteel New District and Shigsteel New District are models of green transformation, whose contribute to the comprehensive realization of green, low carbon and sustainable development of the steel industry in China and even the world.

    The steel used to make a mid-size Battery Electric Vehicle is estimated to account for about 20% of the carbon emissions at the end of the vehicle's supply chains, second only to high-voltage batteries 26% and light metals 23%. Therefore, the production and use of green steel is one of the effective levers to reduce CO2 emissions in the whole life cycle of vehicles.

    India’s Minister of State for Steel Mr Faggan Singh Kulaste informed the Upper House of Indian Parliament that the current crude steel production capacity of Steel Authority of India Limited is 20.63 million tonne per annum & that SAIL has planned to raise their crude steel production capacity to 35 million tonne per annum by 2030-31. The proposed scale of indicative investment by SAIL to reach the capacity of around 35 million tonnes per annum of crude steel will be around INR 110,000 crore (USD 14 billion).

    Mr Kulaste informed “The projects for expansion of capacity for SAIL are financed through a combination of debt and equity which is normally in the ratio of 1:1. The project planning has to go through the preparatory stage before arriving at the stage of execution, where the expenditure is incurred. Since these projects are at preparatory stage, expenditure towards execution of these projects has not incurred.”

    He added that he land bank study is in progress & preliminary study indicates availability of land for the expansion project envisaged in the first phase.

    He also said “The intent of New Public Sector Enterprise Policy is to minimize the presence of Government in the Public Sector Enterprises. To make available newer investment opportunities for private sector so as to allow infusion of private capital, technology, innovation and best management practices, allowing public sector to take over or bid for another public sector identified for disinvestment will defeat the purpose. Therefore, it is not possible for SAIL to participate in the bid to acquire RINL.”

    Russian Deputy PM Seeks to Cut Tax Burden on Steel Industry

    9 Aug, 2022, 6:49 am

    Interfax Russia reported that Russia’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Industry & Trade Mr Denis Manturov at a meeting on the metallurgical sector's development chaired by Russian President Mr Vladimir Putin said that the tax burden on the Russian steel industry needs to be eased by adjusting the excise tax on liquid steel and revising mineral extraction tax or MET for iron ore and coal.. He said “Firstly we believe it is necessary to reduce the fiscal burden, which was introduced last year on a wave of windfall profits. The situation has now changed dramatically. In this regard, I would ask you to back our initiative to adjust the excise tax on liquid steel. This has today essentially become not a tax on income, but one on turnover which the sector did not previously have.

    Mr Manturov added “This was certainly justified when prices spiked, but now we propose to return to this issue, amid ongoing decline in capacity utilization and the performance indicators of the enterprises themselves. Now the export margins of Russian metallurgists are not as high as they were a year ago, and world steel prices are falling sharply, so metallurgists are also forced to work at a discount in new markets.”

    He also spoke of the need to revise the formula for calculating MET for iron ore and coking coal for each enterprise, taking their specifics into consideration.

    JSW Steel Chairman Reaffirms CAPEX to Match Potential

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    9 Aug, 2022, 6:51 am

    JSW Steel’s Chairman Mr Sajjan Jindal in an address to shareholders assured that backed by a favorable investment climate, conducive policies and inherent structural strengths of the economy, India is well-poised to grow rapidly and become a crucial part of the global supply chain, with steel playing a pivotal role in this evolving growth story and JSW Steel is well positioned to capitalize on global and domestic opportunities that come with it. Mr Jindal informed that •the total planned Capex for the next three years is INR 48,700 crores, which includes INR 20,000 crores planned for 2022-23.

    Mr Jindal stated that as a cost-competitive exporter of steel, India has an opportunity to take on a larger role in the global steel trade, aided by the government's continued thrust on manufacturing-led growth and merchandise exports and that JSW Steel is also expanding its India capacity in a phased manner to tap into these opportunities. Mr. Jindal explained that the export duties imposed on steel in May 2022 is a significant, but short-term headwind and that JSW Steel continues to engage with the government on this matter and believes that the duties were imposed only to rein in inflation and will be withdrawn once inflation moderates. The steel industry through the Indian Steel Association is constructively engaging with the government on this matter.

    JSW Steel's performance in 2021-22 was another year of record financial performance with revenues growing by 83%, highest-ever EBITDA and PAT, each growing by 94% and 166%, respectively. Crude steel production for the year, at 19.51 million tonnes, was up 29%, with contributions from the Bhushan Power and Steel acquisition and Dolvi Phase-2 expansion for part of the year. The Company continued to focus on high-margin, value-added products, which accounted for 60% of sales. The average capacity utilization during 2021-22 without the Dolvi expansion was 94% and 89% including the Dolvi expansion. The last year exports share was 28% as JSW Steel exported its products to various countries in South America, Europe, Africa, Middle East & Southeast Asia.

    All the recent acquisitions Asian Colour Coated, Vallabh Tinplate, Bhushan Power & Steel, and JSW Ispat Special Products, delivered robust performance during the year. The biggest highlight, however, was the commissioning of the Dolvi Phase-2 project of 5 million tonnes per annum. It is the largest expansion of its kind in the Indian Steel Industry's history, and essentially doubles the steelmaking capacity at Dolvi.

    World Steel Association has recognized JSW Steel as a Sustainability Champion for the fourth year in a row; JSW Steel has been included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index for Emerging Markets; and, CDP has retained JSW Steel's leadership level rating of A-minus.

    US scrap market to settle at lower levels
    213 Views

    After kicking off last week, US scrap trading is expected to settle during the first half of the current week, but suppliers are seen resisting lowering prices, Kallanish notes.

    Towards the end of last week, a US producer gave a bid for cut grades and busheling at a $30/gross ton and $70/t discount respectively. However, suppliers are seen resisting these discounts, specifically the $70/gt discount on prime grades.

    “This is a sharp decrease and carries busheling prices below shredded in some regions,” says a scrap supplier.

    Most market participants expect US prices to settle within 2-3 days, with cut grades and shredded expected to fall by $20-30/gt and prime grades by $50-70/gt from July prices.

    On the West Coast, buying interest for US-origin containerised HMS 1&2 80:20 remains weak. Japanese scrap is attracting more attention after its spread to US prices narrowed to almost zero. While buyers’ price ideas for US material do not exceed $320-325/tonne cfr Taiwan, US suppliers are seen targeting higher levels, at above $335/t cfr, following the rebound in Turkey last week and yen appreciation.

    On the East Coast, US suppliers are increasing their price targets in Turkey despite the decline in the US domestic market. Offers in the market are scarce, and US suppliers are seen targeting to sell HMS 1&2 80:20 at above $400/t cfr Turkey. On Monday, there were rumours of a US-origin HMS 1&2 80:20 sale at $388/t cfr being done last week. This is, however, denied by the seller.
