Sidor's production facilities have been idle since 2018 due to a systemic crisis in Venezuelan industry. The plant's restoration involves the supply of equipment, modernization of technological lines, and the transfer of engineering solutions that meet modern standards of ferrous metallurgy.

The Russian side will also assist in personnel training and the adjustment of production processes.

This project will become a key element in expanding industrial partnership between Russia and Venezuela and may set the vector for similar initiatives in the field of heavy engineering and metallurgy.
