Poland-based coking coal producer Jastrzebska Spolka Weglowa SA (JSW) has announced that it has revised its coal production plan for this year to reflect the recent force majeure and production disruptions at its Pniówek and Budryk mines. The company has set its coal production target for 2024 at 13.07 million mt.
In April this year, JSW declared force majeures due to a fire which occurred at its Budryk coal mine that resulted in production losses, as SteelOrbis previously reported.
In the second quarter, the company’s total coal output totaled 2.87 million mt, down by 8.3 percent compared to the previous quarter and by 13.6 percent compared to the second quarter of 2023.
