Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation announced
updated transport development strategy until 2030 where
investment in high speed and ultra-high speed railways may
reach $270bn, of which $197bn will be spent on ultra-high
speed (350-400km/h) and $73bn on high-speed railways.
Main projects:
• Ultra-high speed railway Kazan-Samara (560 km);
• Moscow-Kazan-Ekaterinburg ultra-high speed rail link;
• 13 high speed links (main investment on Khabarovsk-
Vladivostok railway line of 774 km);

Comments
Mining segment
Run-of-mine coal production flat
PCI sales grow by 36% on the back of increased supplies to
Asia Pacific and Western Europe offsetting 8% decrease in
anthracites sales due to softer demand
Weaker domestic demand resulted in decrease of coking coal
sales. Growth in export sales is limited due to shipping delays
after floods in Russia Far Eastern regions
Coke sales decrease due to the shutdown of one of its largest
consumer - Southern Urals Nickel Plant
Steel segment:
Decrease in production volumes due to disposal of loss-making
Romanian and Ukrainian steel plants
Billets sales down due to the reduction of resale to third parties
and most of Chelyabinsk plant’s billets are processed internally in
line with strategy of increasing the share of high value added
steel products

Plant to Turkey’s Yildirim Group, which was announced on August 1, 2013.
*Excluded are the data on nickel sales due to the December 2012 halting of Southern Urals Nickel Plant
