Siemens, in consortium with Siemens AG, has received an order worth Rs 271 crore from the state-owned Rashtriya Input Nigam (RINL) to thoroughly modernize blast furnace No 2 at Visakhapatnam Steel Plant (Vizag Steel). Modernization will boost the furnace’s inner volume from 3,200 to 3,820 cubic meters and production increase from 1.7 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) to 2.5 MTPA.

Modernization of the blast furnaces is part of an expansion project which is intended to boost annual pig iron production to 7.3 million tonnes.
