Co-owner of Gunvor oil trader and friend of Vladimir Putin Gennady Timchenko, close to the purchase of "HC" SDS-Coal "in Kemerovo and Completes Acquisition LLC Colmar, which holds licenses for coal deposit in Yakutia, Interfax was told by sources in the industry. The deal on SDS-Coal can be closed in 2-3 months. In SDS-Coal "and" Intergeo, who owns the "Colmar", information about the sale of assets Timchenko not comment. Deputy Director General of Intergeo Sergei Lyamin told Gazeta.ru "that the company is" in discussions "selling" Colmar ". Gunvor not conceal the desire to diversify its business to coal: in the past year, the company announced the appointment of two vice-presidents in the division Gunvor Coal, said he intends to strengthen presence in the global coal market. Timchenko already discussing transportation projects involving coal subsidiary, SDS-coal "- the train operator" Novotrans. He plans to razivat it together with "Freight", "daughter of" Russian Railways ", to purchase 75% of which also apply. Earlier, sources reported that the businessman is also in talks to buy Russia's largest coal transshipment of Murmansk Commercial Seaport. In Russia beyond the Urals coal gas is more important, and at the global level is a shortage of coal fuel, explains the desire to diversify its business Timchenko, Head of Research IFC Alemar Vasily Konuzin. In this direction have already been moved Gazprom has previously intending to conclude an alliance with the coal SUEK, he recalls. Investments in coal became particularly relevant after the accident at the Fukushima Prefecture, where many countries have begun to abandon nuclear energy in favor of traditional energy sources – oil, gas and coal, and coal prices have increased since the crisis of almost half, said Marat Gabitov from Unicredit Securities. "Purchase of transport assets fit into the overall strategy of building a diversified holding company – adds Konuzin. – Transport costs are very important for the coal industry: A year ago, a ton of coal in the Kuzbass was worth about $ 40, then in the central part of Russia – $ 150-160. But to acquire coal assets has been more profitable during the crisis when they were cheaper, he said. And the prospect of coal mining and transportation of Yakutia is very vague, doubts Gabitov: they require higher capital costs than in other regions. Recently the market has information that Timchenko wondered acquisition and suffered from an accident a year ago, mine Raspadskaya. But the businessman has denied these reports. "Neither myself, Gennady Timchenko, nor controlled by it in the structure have no interest in acquiring shares of Raspadskaya and not negotiate about joining the company's share capital ", – said the representative Timchenko. Investors are skeptical about the prospects of recovery Raspadskaya believes Gabitov: much more likely that the mine will be the former owners, which will be sold "strategy." Author: Olga Alexeeva.
