Alchevsk Iron & Steel plant (Алчевський металургійний комбінат (Ukrainian)), also known as AMK and PJSC Alchevsk Iron and Steel Works, is a 5472 thousand tonnes per annum (TTPA) blast furnace (BF), basic oxygen furnace (BOF) and open hearth furnace (OHF) steel plant operating in Alchevsk, Luhansk, Ukraine.
Location
The map below shows the location of the steel plant in Alchevsk, Luhansk, Ukraine.
- Location: Schmidt St. 4, Alchevsk, Luhansk oblast, Ukraine, 94200[1]
- Coordinates (WGS 84): 48.478111, 38.770787 (exact)
Background
Alchevsk Iron & Steel plant was nationalized by breakaway authorities and has been controlled by ZAO Vneshtorgservis since March 2017.[2][3] In 2021, a new company was established by a Russian businessman Evgeny Yurchenko, Southern Mining And Processing Complex (Russian: "Южный горно-металлургический комплекс", ЮГМК), which absorbed all of the metallurgical plants belonging to ZAO Vneshtorgservis.[4][5][6]
Since 2017, the plant has been operating intermittently, with deteriorated work conditions, including withholding of salaries.[7]
As of November 2023, two blast furnaces appear to be operating.[8] There are no updates on the status of the other two blast furnaces, which seem to have been mothballed since 2017.[9]
