俄罗斯钢铁研磨球市场

Abstract

The report is devoted to investigation of current standing of market of steel grinding balls in Russia and forecast of the market development up to 2010. The report consists of 6 Sections, contains 96 pages, including 19 Figures, 36 Tables and Appendix. This work is desk study. As information sources, we used data of Rosstat, Inter-State Committee on Statistics of CIS countries, Federal Customs Service of Russia, official domestic railage statistic of JSC RZhD (former Ministry of Railway Transport of Russia), sectoral (industrial) and regional press, annual and quarterly reports of companies, as well as data from web-sites of company-producers and consumers of steel grinding balls. Notice that, in Russia, trucking of freight is not liable to obligatory statistic account, so the report considers only data on railage of the product. At final stage of the work, some data were verified and corrected in the course of telephone interviews with representatives of company-consumers of steel grinding balls.

The first Section of the report presents review of technology of production and requirements, imposed on quality of steel grinding balls, produced in Russia.

The second Section is devoted to analysis of production statistics for the period of 1998-2006, including data on steel grinding balls output in Russia, dynamics of production of the commodity products, regional pattern of the production, as well as consideration of current standing of key large producers of steel grinding balls. The Section presents data on technology of production and applied equipment, range and grade of products, the production volumes, plans on enterprise development, as well as data on volumes and flows (destinations) of supplies of the products for 2004-2006.

The third Section is devoted to analysis of Russian foreign trade in steel grinding balls in 1998 - 2006. Besides, the Section presents brief description of markets of steel grinding balls of the main country-consumers of the production: Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan.

The fourth Section is devoted to analysis of prices on steel grinding balls in Russia, including data on release domestic prices of the main Russian producers in 2006 (and 2005 for comparison), analysis of export-import prices from 1999 to 2006.

The fifth Section presents analysis of consumption of steel grinding balls in Russia. The Section presents supply-demand balance of the product. Description of the main end-uses of steel grinding balls (mining and cement industries) and characteristics of the greatest consumers of steel grinding balls (including dynamics of their production) in Russia are given. Besides, the Section presents forecasts of development of the main end-uses of steel grinding balls.

The sixth, final Section of the report presents forecast of production of steel grinding balls in Russia for 2007-2010 and forecast of consumption of steel grinding balls for the period.

The Appendix includes addresses and contact information on the main enterprise-producers of steel grinding balls.
