Elinformadorv has reported that the Venezuelan steelmaker Sidor, categorically rejecting the strike that has been in effect since 9 January, has Tweeted that its production of pellets remains operative, maintaining the supply of the product to the iron and steel sector. Sidor said “We remain convinced and in defense of the worker management model that guarantees production to continue winning.” The Sidor steel plant, with a 4.6 million tonnes per year crude steel capacity, is located in Ciudad Guayana in the Bolivar state of Venezuela. The mill was privatized in 1997 and renationalized in 2008, with its production declining from 4.6 million mt in 2006 to 3.6 tonnes in 2016, subsequently halting its steel production.
