BEIJING, August 18 (TMTPOST) — The world's largest stainless steel maker Qingshan Holding Group will sell some of its assets in Indonesia to Baowu Group, China's largest state-owned steel company.
Qingshan Holding Group is negotiating with China's Baowu Group to sell its eight ferronickel production lines in Indonesia's Morowali Industrial Park, with an annual production capacity of about 500,000 tons, for a consideration of between $3 billion and $4 billion. The specific amounts, personnel, operating methods and other details of the transaction are still under negotiation.
Negotiations on the deal began in April this year. The production line that Qingshan Holding Group plans to sell this time is used to produce raw materials for stainless steel.Its plant is located in its Morowali Industrial Park on the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia. The park, also known as PT Indonesian Morowali Industrial Park, is a key project of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) of China in Indonesia. Qingshan Group built the park in 2013 as a joint venture with Indonesia's local Eight Star Group, and Shanghai Decent Investment Group owned by the Qingshan Holding Group has 49.69% of the park.
According to the official disclosure of Qingshan Group, Morowali Industrial Park has a land area of over 3,200 hectares and has become the world's longest and most complete stainless steel production base with an annual production capacity of 2.5 million tons of ferronickel and 3 million tons of stainless steel. The nickel-iron production line that China's Baowu Group plans to acquire accounts for about 20% of the park's nickel-iron production capacity.
