Brazil`s July pig iron exports extend 2021 high
3 Views

Brazilian pig iron exports rose in July, according to the latest Brazilian Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade (Mdic) report monitored by Kallanish. The data includes sponge iron and iron or steel powder together with pig iron exports.

Brazil shipped 320,000 tonnes of pig iron in July, 27% higher month-on-month but 14.8% less on-year. This volume was the second-highest exported by the country so far in 2021 after the 351,000t in January.

Seven-month pig iron shipments reached 1.98 million tonnes, down 14.1% compared to January-July 2020, according to Mdic.

The main destinations for Brazilian six-month pig iron exports were China and the US, which each took around 23% of shipments. The Netherlands and South Korea followed with a share of 12% and 6.4% respectively. Meanwhile, Japan absorbed 5.7% of Brazil’s pig iron exports in the same period.

Mdic data show that pig iron exports had an fob value of $406 million in July, up by 8.2% m-o-m and 54.3% y-o-y. The year-to-date export value was $2.65 billion, 24.3% higher on-year.

Meanwhile, Brazil’s July pig iron imports amounted to 10,400t, 3.7% less versus the previous month but 109.9% higher y-o-y. Year-to-date entries totalled 103,342t, up 145.6% over January-July 2020. Brazil’s main supplier of pig iron in the period was Norway with a 19% share, while India and Russia had a share of 15% and 8.9% respectively, Mdic adds.

According to market participants, the average pig iron export price during the second full week of August stands at $545-540/tonne fob Brazil.

Interpipe continues to increase steel output
1 Views

Ukrainian pipemaker Interpipe increased crude steel production in January-July to 537,000 tonnes, up by 19.9% on-year, Kallanish notes. This accelerated from output growth in January-June of 16.5% on-year.

However, in July alone, the company produced 79,000t of steel, down from 90,500t in June.

The company’s 2020 output and sales of all products had decreased due to the pandemic, high costs and a decline in demand. Crude steel production fell to 758,700t, down by 11.2% on-year. Output of pipe was less by 20.9% at 464,100t.

In July, Interpipe cut the first threads on its premium pipe at a licensee facility in the United Arab Emirates (see Kallanish passim). In the past two years, the company has signed 14 licensing agreements with local shops. They are located in all key export markets in the Middle East, North and South Americas, and the CIS.

Interpipe sees demand for pipe growing this year, allowing it to more aggressively raise prices for new orders.

Early in the second quarter, the company managed to redirect the volume of wheel sales lost due to the Russian embargo on Ukraine to other regions like the US, CIS, Europe and India. This helped almost restore production of railway products to the levels seen before the imposition of the embargo.

The enterprise will continue to increase capacity for export markets. In 2021, it plans to complete the construction of an additional workshop for the production of wheelsets. It will also start construction of new facilities for the production of pipe with premium threaded connections for oil and gas production.

Iran’s steel output decline export increase
4 Views

Iranian iron & steel production fell sharply in July compared to June, but exports surged. Despite production growth in the first quarter of the Iranian calendar (20 March-21 June), figures over the four month period ending 22 July turned negative versus the same period last year. Power outages started in the first week of July, hampering production severely.

Under these circumstances, Iran’s steel exports surged on-year in the first four months of 2021, according to Iranian Steel Producers Association (ISPA) statistics published on its website.

In July, compared to June, billet and bloom, rebar, and hot-rolled coil production fell by 42%, 53%, and 22% respectively.

Four-month semi-finished steel output decreased 4% to 9.57 million tonnes, with slab declining 3% to 3.79mt, while billet and bloom dropped 5% to 5.78mt. In Q1 the growth in semi-finished output had been 6% on-year. Semi-finished steel exports grew 51% to 2.52mt on-year during the first four-month period of 2021

Finished steel output also declined, by 6% to 6.47mt, with long products making up 3.66mt after a 1% decrease. Flats output was down 11% to 2.8mt. Rebar saw an output decrease of 1% to 3mt, and beams were down 9% to 374,000t. July’s beam and rebar cumulative output decreased nearly 49% versus June this year. When it comes to exports rebar takes the lion's share, up 114% on-year to 873,000 mt.

Four-month flats output decreased 11%, with HRC down 10% to 2.76mt, and cold-rolled coil down 9% to 826,000t. The only exception was coated steel –mainly hot deep galvanised- which increased by 5% to 493,000t.

Direct reduced iron output meanwhile was flat with 10.6mt. Exports however ballooned by 569% on-year to 415,000mt from 62,000mt during first four-month period of 2020.

American steel ready to meet infrastructure challenge: AISI
2 Views

The US steel industry stands ready and willing to fulfill the needs of President Joe Biden’s trillion-dollar infrastructure plan, says the American Iron and Steel Institute.

“American steel – which is the cleanest in the world - is at the core of the bipartisan plan to build back better our infrastructure, including roads and bridges, locks and dams, drinking water systems, the nation’s electrical grid and new clean energy projects,” says institute ceo Kevin Dempsey.

The $1.2 trillion bill has now passed the US Senate - it needs only to pass the US House of Representatives and receive President Biden’s expected signature to become law, Kallanish notes.

“The infrastructure bill that passed the Senate this week provides a tremendous boost to steel -- American steel demand could increase by as much as 5 million (short) tons for every $100 billion of new investment,” Dempsey adds. “Coming out of the Covid-19 demand shock last year, our mills have increased capacity utilisation dramatically, recently reaching the highest level since prior to the Great Recession.”

The ripple demand stemming from the infrastructure bill will be spread over years, but it will still provide balance to the supply-demand fuse originally lit by the Section 232 tariffs.

“While it is important to remember that the infrastructure investment will be over many years, our industry has the capability to fulfill the demand for steel and stands ready to meet our nation’s needs,” Dempsey concludes.

United Steelworkers push for passage of infrastructure bill
2 Views

United Steelworkers (USW) members will kick off a nationwide infrastructure campaign as part of its ongoing We Supply America effort urging for a robust infrastructure package, Kallanish reports.

According to an announcement by the USW, members will rally in six states between the 16-20 August to call upon Congress to pass a large-scale infrastructure package. Joining alongside the USW on its campaign will be US Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh, several members of Congress and other elected officials, as well as company representatives.

"We need a national infrastructure that keeps us safe, that is modern, that keeps our supply chains stocked with the materials we need, and that keeps the country moving in the right direction...As a union, we have the skilled work force to accomplish all these goals," explains USW president Tom Conway.

Earlier this week, the US Senate passed the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act in a 69-30 vote. Under this legislation, federal infrastructure spending would increase by $550 billion over a five-year period with $343 billion towards the nation's roads/highways.

"Ultimately, every worker and every family in every US state will benefit in some way from an infrastructure program...Done right, a robust infrastructure investment will spur jobs and job growth in communities across the country and bring meaningful economic opportunity to people in all of our neighborhoods. Congress just needs to make it a reality," adds USW vice president Roxanne Brown.

CIS HRC prices drift just above $900/t
3 Views

The CIS flat products market has been softening in line with global demand indications, severely affected by the weakness in Asian markets. A new wave of Covid-19 infections is quashing demand in major Asian hubs, while enabling higher export volumes at lower prices due to still high production levels and competing with CIS suppliers in their traditional markets, market sources tell Kallanish.

Holiday season in Europe and Turkish buyers' high arrivals schedule amid uncertainty is also keeping buyers in the regions on the fence. Turkey was expected to come to negotiations table last week, but has not been active in sourcing CIS material since a sale at $940/tonne cfr with around $30/t freight almost two weeks ago. The $910-920/t fob Black Sea level is pegged by traders as most workable in most regions, excluding Europe, where it is still higher, and southeast Asia, where prices are pegged at around $910-920/t cfr maximum.

European buyers are not in the market due to high holiday season and a certain softening in their domestic market. Most recent scrap declines in Europe are adding to the concerns of more declines once buyers are back, which are underpinned by relatively high stock levels, and abundant arrivals of material in September and October booked at higher prices, sources say.

Although Chinese exports are already absent and are not causing oversupply, there remain vague expectations in the market that more restrictions on output and exports will tighten the market further, giving way to consolidation, if not rebound, of prices and demand.

"CIS suppliers are trying to hold sales at above $900/t fob to non-European markets, and there is certainly demand at this level in both western and eastern hemispheres, but bueyrs are aware of shortening lead times, and sliding feedstock prices, so bookings are slow. They are likely to stay slow until September, unless more concessions are made," one trader notes.

Some suppliers are understood to still have relatively high September rolling availability, but it is vaguely matched by existing demand. Uncertainty caused by the new Asian lockdowns and disruptions to domestic consumption there are causing buyers to stay cautious, but the majority of sources remain adamant the price of CIS HRC will not fall far below $900/t fob in this round of sales.

Salzgitter confirms improved outlook after splendid first half
1 Views

In the first half of 2021, Salzgitter AG generated the highest pre-tax result since the exceptional financial years 2007 and 2008, Kallanish hears from the German steelmaker.

Its external sales rose to €4.43 billion ($5.20 billion) in the first six months of the financial year 2021, significantly outperforming the first half 2020 (€3.63 billion) which was determined by the Covid-19 pandemic. Profit before taxes came to €306 million, after a loss of €128m suffered a year earlier. The total crude steel production rose from 2.95m tonnes to 3.38m tonnes.

Drivers were dynamic uptrend in rolled steel prices over the course of the first six months, coupled with a sustained recovery in the market, Salzgitter explains. These had a particularly positive impact on the group’s strip steel and trading business units, it says.

“Provided that the market continues its stable development in the second half of the year despite the latent coronavirus crisis, we affirm our forecast that was revised upward in June,” Salzgitter states. For the full year, it anticipates an increase in sales to more than €9 billion, and a pre-tax profit of between €400-600m.

The group has initiated an internal process to follow up on its “Salzgitter AG 2021” corporate strategy.

"We will take the time we need for devising the new corporate strategy and expect to present it in the spring of 2022,” says Gunnar Groebler, incumbent ceo since July. Key components of the strategy will include the topics of sustainability and decarbonisation.

Tata Steel MD Suggest Index for Steel Prices in India

Business Line reported that in a bid to assuage concerns around steel pricing and allegations of industry cartelisation, Tata Steel has suggested index-based pricing to promote transparency and ease the pressure on both the user as well as steel companies. Tata Steel CEO & Managing Director Mr TV Narendran told Business Line “We can find a way to index steel prices and follow it both ways when prices go up and down. I say this from my experience in NatSteel in Singapore.”

Citing an example of how the index in Singapore has helped stakeholders, Mr Narendran said that steel in a road project is just 5% of the cost. He said “If steel price goes up by 30%, then the cost goes up to 8%. Eventually, the person building the road in Singapore follows the index to ensure the contractor does not suffer and the government benefits if steel prices drop.”

Mr Narendran said “When steel prices dropped two years back, I do not think any benefit went to the government. So if we have an index it will benefit both ways. We have to think of some mechanism. As a steel company, if asked for a fixed price forever I am happy to offer it. Instead of dealing with different price points at USD 350 and USD 1,000, if you give me a USD 650 guaranteed price it will help us in making investments. As steelmakers, we want a steady price but it does not work that way.”

He added “It is unfair to accuse steel companies as prices in India are just reflecting what is happening in the international markets. We did not have too many sympathisers when steel prices dropped. It is unfair to accuse the industry of doing something different. If the steel price in India was going up and in the rest of the world it is dropping then you can say something is fishy. I dare say, still steel prices in India are cheaper compared to anywhere in the world even during the peak. I do not think no company or group of companies can control steel prices. Ultimately, what happens in steel prices is dependent on what happens in China. Every other thing is irrelevant.”

The user industry has been complaining that high steel prices have been draining their competitiveness and their existence is threatened with margins being wiped out.

Transporters Strike Hits Ship Recycling Yards in Alang

Financial Express reported that activities at the Alang ship recycling yard in Bhavnagar district, Gujarat, have come to halt for more than two weeks, with transporters working with ship breakers going on strike for the past 21 days over loading and transport charges. In the wake of increasing fuel prices, transporters have demanded a hike in transport charges by at least 10%. They have also demanded that the loading charges of INR 100 per tonne, which are borne by transporters, be waived.

Alang Ship Recycling Association vice-president Mr Ramesh Mendpara said “We have been forced to shut all ship recycling-related activities over the past fortnight due to the transporters’ strike. There are no takers for scrap. Ship recycling units are unable to fulfil pending orders of steel and other material extracted from broken ships.”

More than 50% of scrap is purchased by nearly 100 re-rolling mills in Sihor town, around 65 km from the Alang yard. Traditionally, transport charges are borne by scrap purchasers. Hence, ship breakers have involved office-bearers of re-rolling mill associations to sort out the issues with transporters.

BlueScope Reports Tripling of EBIT in FY2022

BlueScope has reported FY2021 net profit after tax of AUD 1.19 billion, a AUD 1.10 billion increase over FY2020. BlueScope Managing Director and CEO Mr Mark Vassella said “Underlying EBIT for the year was AUD 1.72 billion, tripling that of FY2020. This is an impressive result. All operating segments performed exceptionally well, driven by strong demand and steel spreads. Earnings momentum built throughout the year, with the Company delivering AUD 1.19 billion in underlying EBIT in the second half.”

FY2021 Financial Headlines

Reported NPAT: AUD 1,193.3 million

Underlying NPAT: AUD 1,166.3 million

Underlying EBIT: AUD 1,723.8 million

Underlying pre-tax ROIC: 24.8%

Capital Management

Final dividend (unfranked): 25 cps

Special dividend (unfranked): 19 cps On market buy-back: up to $500M

The results mean BlueScope will now accelerate its strategic growth plans that will see BlueScope:

Invest for the long-term growth and resilience of the Group

Position the business for a low carbon future, with our near-term action underpinned by a five-year climate investment program of up to AUD 150 million

Continue to deliver stronger returns to shareholders.

Outlook for 1H FY2022

At the beginning of 1H FY2022, order and despatch rates in key markets remain robust. Spot steel spreads in North America are materially higher than both 2H FY2021 and longer-term averages. In light of these unusually strong conditions, the Company expects underlying EBIT in 1H FY2022 to be in the range of AUD 1.8 billion to AUD 2.0 billion. While in the medium term we see supportive industry and end use demand trends, it is uncertain how long the current robust conditions will be sustained. Expectations are subject to spread, foreign exchange and market conditions.

Iron Ore Shortage Dents Iron & Steel Industry in Odisha

The Pioneer reported that due to the shortage of iron ore on 2020-21, Odisha-based iron ore pellet, sponge iron & steel plants could not produce as per their installed capacities. As per information from the State Government’s Steel & Mines Department “Out of 31.69- million tonne per annum installed capacity, the pellet plants produced 22.76 million tonne, out of 15 million tonne per annum installed capacity, sponge iron plants produced only 7.82 million tonne in 2020-21 and out of the total installed capacity of steel of 33 million tonne per annum, steel plants produced 20.5 million tonne in FY 2021-21.”

The State Government is estimated to lose revenue of over INR 7,770 crore in the form of GST alone because of the underutilisation of the installed capacities of steel, pellet and sponge iron plants.

Besides, there is additional loss of employment of over lakhs of local people who would have otherwise been employed for inward and outward movement of materials and operations of the plants, as per industry estimate. Industry experts attribute this capacity underutilisation primarily to sale of iron ore by merchant mines to outside-Odisha plants creating an artificial scarcity of raw material within the State.

In last financial year, Odisha merchant mines produced 23per cent less iron ore compared to the year 2019-20. During the year, around 80per cent of the iron ore produced in Odisha was taken outside the State.

Tata Steel Investing in Europe Business & Drops Plans to Divest

PTI reported that Tata Steel has outlaid a capital expenditure of INR 3,000 crore for its European operations as its focus is to make the business stronger. Tata Steel CEO & Managing Director Mr TV Narendran told PTI "For financial year 2022, we have guided that our capex will be INR 3,000 crore for Europe. It is more for sustenance capex, environment related capex, capex on the product mix, enhancement that we are doing particularly in the Netherlands.”

He said “In Europe, the company's operation is being separated into Tata Steel Netherlands and Tata Steel UK which would help in cost efficiencies and management focus. The European business this year will be cash positive in terms of EBIDTA and PAT. It will be a strong year for European businesses as well. Tata Steel's focus is on the performance of European business. We are not actively looking for any buyers. If you make the business stronger, that helps with the value of the business.”

He further said “It was SSAB which had reached out to Tata Steel. We had not gone looking for them. The only time when we were actively working on it was when the Thyssenkrupp proposal was there. SSAB was interested, they pursued then dropped it. Tata Steel is under no pressure to take any hasty action. The company will continue to focus on performance of the business.”

According to the company, steel deliveries at Tata Steel Europe increased by 17.4% YoY to 2.33 million tonne in the April-June quarter of the ongoing fiscal, and EBITDA improved sharply to 150 million pounds.

Earlier, the proposed merger of Tata Steel's European operations with Thyssenkrupp of Germany hit a roadblock after the European Commission raised many objections to the deal. Tata Steel Europe and Thyssenkrupp had signed definitive agreements in June 2018 to combine their steel businesses in Europe to create a 50-50 pan European joint venture company.

South Korea Expects Stable Supply of Rebars in H2 amid Price Hike

Yonhap reported that South Korea's Ministry of Trade, Industry & Energy will work to maintain a stable supply of reinforcement steel products used for construction in the second half of 2021, although the recovery of the virus-hit economy may continue to drive up their market prices. The local supply of rebar products is expected to reach 5.6 million tonnes in the July-December period, up 11% from a year earlier surpassing the anticipated demand of 5.5 million tonnes, which is 9% higher compared with 2020.”

Ministry said “Despite the higher supply, the local price of rebars may remain strong due to growing demand from the local industries in sync with the recovery of the virus-hit economy. The average market price of rebars, which slipped to around KWR 1 million won (USD 873) last month, bounced back to WR 1.2 million won this month, as the shorter-than-expected monsoon season also revitalized the demand from construction sites.”

Yaoyi Stainless Invests in Bright Annealing Furnace Line

China’s Southeast Coast based Yaoyi Stainless Steel has spent more than USD 150,000 to renovate the Bright Annealing Furnace line, which greatly improved the elongation, surface and mechanical properties of cold-rolled stainless steel coils.

With 25 years of experience in the producing cold rolled stainless steel coils, Yaoyi mainly produces cold-rolled stainless steel strips such as 201, 301, 304, 304L, and 316. Among the 200, 300, and 400 series of stainless steels, 301 is the steel that is most likely to be strengthened by cold deformation, and has excellent rust resistance under atmospheric conditions, so it is suitable for applications that bear higher loads, light weight, and do not rust. In addition, 301 is prone to work hardening when impacted by an external force, thereby absorbing more impact energy and providing higher safety guarantee for the equipment and production personnel.

Ruscon Introduces Polymer Dunnage for Steel Shipments

See News reported that Ruscon, the parent company of the Dutch SmartContainer, has introduced an innovative support-material for transporting steel plates, a durable replacement for the wooden separators that are being used for centuries. The parts, a polymer composite material cast in a cylinder shape, have been developed as plate separation during storage and transport. The polymer composite materials are now used on ships from St. Petersburg to the harbour of Ghent. These reusable separating parts on the cargo from steel plates will be collected at the harbour to be transported back to sender. There is a deposit on the parts, a stick behind the door to make sure they are recycled, Ruscon stated.

For this a new transport scheme is being established by Ruscon, to allow the use of these reusable separation agents. Also Ruscon takes care of the full customs clearance for the loading and unloading ports and exports the re-import for the seperators to Russia. In this way, the customer receives a complete use cycle of this innovative product

There the parts are light and easy to handle, the ease of use means also, improvement to the speed of handling when loading and unloading the steel plates.

Since the spring of this year, a test period has started on the St Petersburg Ghent (Belgium) St Petersburg route. During this period, both traditional materials and the polymeric separators were used for cargo securing. A total of five test shipments were carried out and finally, on June 18, a ship was on its way from St. Petersburg with a cargo completely separated by the polymer components.

A number of large steel producers have shown interest in using the new separating materials. Therefore, in addition to the port of St. Petersburg, a shipment will soon be prepared using these innovative separation technologies from Novorossiysk, Ruscon stated.
