Construction company “Olvia” took an active part in the construction of continuous casting machines with an annual production capacity of 2.5 million tons of slabs, becoming the largest contracting company at the facility. The investments of the Metinvest group amounted to $ 150 million. The complex was developed taking into account the latest technologies, in compliance with European environmental standards.
Total construction company "Olvia" during the construction of CCM:
- More than 72 thousand m3 of soil and slag were developed and transported.
- 13,449 m3 of process concrete and 1,032 tons of reinforcing bars were laid, which is more than 95% of the total volume of monolithic structures
- 884 tons of metal mounted
- 13,400 m2 of reinforced monolithic reinforced concrete roads were completed.
- The main technological equipment was installed and tested (ladle-furnace installation site, site for the reception, storage, and transportation of bulk materials, ferroalloys).

Commentary by the head of the production department:
We performed a high degree of complexity of work on monolithic concreting in a short time and in a cramped area, namely:
- The head of the CCM-4 machine with the erection of walls from mark -0.500 to mark + 12.640 and installation of embedded parts with a total weight of 100 tons, with the weight of individual embedded parts up to 8 tons.
- The tail part of the CCM is a complex structural concrete with a large number of trenches and anchors
- For the construction of hydraulic and lubrication systems, we developed, purchased, and installed 2 new washing stations with a total capacity of 1,440 l / min
Two-position ladle furnace installation
The construction of the complex will increase the capacity of MMC named after Ilyich steelmaking almost 40%, annually producing about 2.5 million tons of cast slabs measuring 170-250x900-1550 mm.
Export will bring to the state additional foreign exchange earnings in the amount of about 1 billion US dollars.
