Venezuela’s state-run steelmaker Sidor has resumed production at its rebar rolling mill, the company said on Thursday, indicating the equipment was reactivated on August 10.

Jose Bastardo, chief of department at the company’s rebar rolling mill, said the company’s No. 2 production line located at its semi-finished products area has resumed activities as well.

The No. 2 production line can roll export quality rebar of 12mm.

In July, Sidor resumed billet production and later in the month the company announced it had resumed operations at its wire rod rolling mill.

Sidor had halted its operations in most H1 due to electricity issues.
