About the company
Overview
Management Company ELSI LLC manages the portfolio of assets being part of Top 3 Russian coal miners in terms of coal production and transportation. The company’s assets are located in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the Khabarovsk Krai and Primorsk Krai, Novosibirsk, Kemerovo and Amur Oblasts.
The Elga Coal Complex in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) is a group of companies that extract, process, transport and sell premium quality coking coal with extremely low sulphur and phosphorus content. The Elga deposit can be compared to Australian coal assets such as Goonyella, Gordstone and Gregory.
The company assets in Novosibirsk and Kemerovo Oblasts include Razrez Kolyvansky JSC, Razrez Vostochny LLC, Razrez Kiyzassky LLC and Razrez Verkhneteshsky LLC. The assets extract and export Ultra High Grade anthracite and other coals for metallurgy. UHG anthracite is valued for its high fixed carbon content, low level of impurities and high caloric value.
In Amur Oblast there is the largest deposit of the Far East — the Ogodzhinskoye deposit. Port Vera is located in the Primorsk Krai. It is focused on transshipment of the coal coming from the Sugodinsko-Ogodzhinskoye deposit.
The projects owned by the company in the Khabarovsk Krai include Port Vera and the Pacific Railway. The railway will connect the terminal at the Sea of Okhotsk and the Elga coal deposit.

OTHER ASSETS MANAGED BY MANAGEMENT COMPANY ELSI LLC
Port Vera LLC
Port Vera LLC invests in the construction & operation project: a marine coal terminal near Otkryty Cape, in the Primorsk Krai.
It is a complex project comprising development of terminal facilities including both marine and railway cargo fronts, and coal storage facilities.
The terminal is furnished with state-of-the-art coal receiving and transshipment equipment. To ensure environmental friendliness know-hows and cutting-edge technologies are implemented there. Coal is unloaded by means of a special transhipping complex equipped with a railcar dumper.
Stage 1 of the Project was commissioned in 2019. Completion of Stage 2 is scheduled for 2021. It is planned to increase the terminal turnover to 7 million tonnes by 2022. Long-term expectations see 20 million tonnes.
The terminal location is advantageous in terms of climatic conditions (uncomplicated ice conditions, year-round navigation), proximity to the railway and easy access to the Asia-Pacific Region countries.
