Accordingly, in 2011, Sidenor's key objectives focus on maintaining and increasing market shares, seeking new geographic markets and expanding into new products, while maintaining high productivity rates at its production plants.
Moreover, in 2011, the contribution of Sidenor's subsidiary Corinth Pipeworks is expected to be significant, since an increase in investment projects of energy companies is evident following increased demand for energy and the recovery of oil prices.
