National Iranian Steel Company at a Glance
National Iranian Steel Company with more than half century experience, is one of the main player in mining and steel industries of Iran .
History
In 1959 a substantial step was taken by the government towards setting a technical organization to establish the steel industry under title of "National Iranian Steel Corporation" which used BF technology For steel production.
In 1972, the National Iranian Steel Industries Corporation was established to supply and produce Steel through DRI process and to supply needed iron ore .
In 1979 , after the victory of the Islamic revolution , The National Iranian Steel Corporation and the National Iranian Steel Industries Corporation were merged to form the National Iranian Steel Company (NISCO ).
Thus , the most specialized company active in the fields of steel making and mining was born.
At the beginning of 2001 , NISCO was the only company specialized and active in field of management and construction of steel mills , as well as implementation of mining and steel making projects in Iran . Among them is the Mobarakeh Steel complex , as a major steel producer in Middle East which was implemented and commisioned by NISCO .
Some other Steel making and mining projects which have been implemented by NISCO are:
A – Steel industries
Esfahan steel mill Co.
Khozestan steel Co.
Iran Alloy steel Co.
Khorasan steel Co.
Azarbaijan steel Co.
Hormozgan steel Co
B – Mining industries
Chadoor maloo mining and Industrial Co.
Golegohar Mining and Industrial Co.
Iran Central Iron ore Co.
C – Many coal mining and steel making related projects were implemented by Nisco too.
In accordance with the Article (6) of the law for " Centralization of Industry and mine affairs " approved by the parliament, the Iranian mines and mining Industries Development and Renovation Organization ( IMIDRO) was established In 2000, and NISCO as one of its major subsidiaries was assigned to Implement , supervise and commission the following steel expansion projects :
- Iran Alloy steel co (Yazd )
- Azarbaijan steel Co .
- Khorasan steel Co .
- Maybood steel Co .
- Zagroos steel Co .
- Ahwaz pipe & tube Rolling mill
- Iranian National steel Industries Group
- Sangan iron ore mobilization project
- Graphite Electrode project
According to the Article (44) of the Constitution law , all the above companies were privatized .
Moreover the execution of the seven Provincial steel Projects were assigned to NISCO .
The seven – steel projects which are constructing in seven regions of the country are as follows:
1- Sepid dasht steel project in Chaharmahal- Bakhtiari province
2- Nairiz steel project in Fars Province
3- Shadegan steel project in Khozestan Province
4- Mianeh steel project in Easter Azarbaijan Province
5- Qhaenat steel project in Southern khorasan Province
6- Sabzevar steel project in khorasan Province
7- Baft steel project in Kerman Province
NISCO seven provincial steel projects.
Item Steel project capacity product direct employment
1 Sepid dasht steel project 0.8-1Mty slab 1000
2 Nairiz steel project 0.8-1Mty Billet/bloom 1000
3 Shadegan steel project 0.8-1Mty Billet/bloom 1000
4 Mianeh steel project 0.8-1Mty Billet/bloom 1000
5 Qhaenat steel project 0.8-1Mty Billet/bloom 1000
6 Sabzevar steel project 0.8-1Mty Billet/bloom 1000
7 Baft steel project 0.8-1Mty Billet/bloom 1000
Each seven provincial project will produce 0.8-1mty crude steel after coming on stream , and would create 1000 direct jobs.
Al together , around 7 Mty will be added to the country,s crude steel production And this would led to 7000 direct jobs after being commissioned.
One of the important aspects of the seven – provincial projects is that all consultancy and engineering services , as well as , executive activities are carring out now by private consulting and domestic contractors , Accordingly after being commissioned, the project not only would meet the steel rolling mill demand for raw materials but also , by considering the private sectors role in the project , they would pave the way for private sectors , growth and advances , boosting the engineering executive potentials and enhancing domestic technical Know-how .
NISCO,s current activities and other missions are :
1- Enhancing the effectiveness of human resources in mining and steel industries.
2- Promotion and adaption of mining and steel industries with the environmental requirements.
3- To follow up mining industries development policies according to Iron and steel master plan.
4- To carry out relevant studies to establish two giant steel
Mills with 10 Mty capacity in Persian Gulf region.
5- To attract foreign and domestic investment in steel industries.
