Anton Bazulev, NLMK’s spokesman, commented:
“We are satisfied with our overall production performance. Despite a substantial downturn in the global steel market, NLMK has achieved its production targets, taken the opportunity to undertake equipment overhauls and maintained production discipline. All these measures have helped to support our solid margins. We remain on track to implement our production goals and further technical upgrading targets in 2006. NLMK is well placed to achieve optimal results on that strong basis in 2006“.
