DEVELOPING THE SINTER FINES MARKET
First Trial Cargo to ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe (TKSE)
The first trial cargo of 80,000 tonnes of
Sydvaranger Concentrate left Kirkenes for EECV
Rotterdam on the 29th September.
The trial shipment is a culmination of a number of
months of discussions and testwork between
Studiengesellschaft für Eisenerz-Aufbereitung
(SGA), TKSE and NFE on the sintering
performance of Sydvaranger Concentrate and its
handling performance through the logistics chain.
The sintering strategy is aimed at offering a high
quality concentrate located close to key European
markets providing customers with an
-
opportunity to 'sweeten' their sinter blends,
while allowing NFE to access markets with lower
freight costs than more distant alternatives.
The Company is evaluating additional shipments
to other European steelmakers in the coming
months and is hopeful of securing a longer term
offtake contract with one of these parties, which
will complement the existing relationship with
Tata Steel.
