PÖYRY PLC Press release 29 September 2015 at 5 pm (EEST)
Pöyry awarded permitting engineering assignment by Siberwood for greenfield pulp
mill in Russia
LLC Siberwood has awarded Pöyry with the 'Proekt', i.e. permitting engineering
assignment for the construction of a new modern integrated pulp mill in the
Krasnoyarskiy region in Russia. 'Proekt' is an official stage in the approval
process of construction projects in Russia. The assignment shall be completed by
April 2016.
The pulp mill will produce northern bleached softwood kraft pulp (NBSK),
bleached hardwood kraft pulp (BHKP) and dissolving pulps. The overall capacity
will be 900 000 t/year. The mill will be self-sufficient in heat and electrical
power. Construction shall be completed by 2019. The Siberwood project has been
evaluated as a priority project by the Administration of Krasnoyarsk Region. By
using Best Available Technology (BAT) that meets International and Russian
Environmental Regulations, the project will contribute to improved living
standards for local citizens.
"Our purpose is to realize a greenfield pulp mill project which shall become
globally significant and indeed the biggest in Russia. For production of about
1 million tons of finished products, the mill will consume around 5 million m3
of low-grade wood currently unutilized in the region. In this respect, the new
pulp mill will provide sanitary effect to the region's forest cluster. In the
future, the modern complex shall become a platform for development of satellite
biotechnological production facilities", says Sergey Malkov, CEO of LLC
Siberwood.
"Pöyry is delighted to participate in such a significant project. With our
combination of world class expertise and deep local understanding, we are able
to support this very interesting project", says Nicholas Oksanen, Pöyry's
President, Industry Business Group.
The value of the order is not disclosed. The order was recognised within the
Industry Business Group order stock in Q3/2015.
