the steelmaking facilities of the Joint Stock Company “Liepajas Metalurgs” has
been actually completed in full compliance with the foreseen project schedules.
During the implementation of the project - in the former Siemens Martin Shop
(now the EAF Melt Shop) the Siemens Martin technology, which served for more
than 100 years, was replaced by modern equipment for electrical production of
steel: 100 ton Electric Arc Furnace (EAF), scrap preheating system (hereinafter
COSS - Continuous Optimized Shaft System), 100 ton Ladle Furnace (LF), Water
Treatment Plant, Dedusting Plant, Substation 110 kV and the Compensator.

Certain changes were also made to the existing Continuous Casting Machine
(CCM), which was built at the first stage of the revamping of the company’s
steelmaking facilities. As a result of this revamping the equipment was
installed that allows to cast steel made and refined in the EAF and LF, and to
cut the cast billets with the Oxygen Cutting Machine.

For the purposes of the above-mentioned steelmaking plant also the
infrastructure was improved and revamped for accumulation, storage and handling
of metal scrap, 6 new bridge cranes were installed for loading metal scrap into
scrap buckets, roads were built with total area of 22000 m2 for specialized
scrap transportation vehicles.

steelmaking plant on 06.12.2011. During the implementation of this project a
high technological system of production was introduced. Thanks to this system
