Chile: A fire at Sites 1, 2, 3 and 5 of Puerto Ventanas port in Valparaíso Region has disrupted clinker transportation to Melón’s Puerto Ventanas cement plant. The La Tercera newspaper has reported that the fire destroyed a clinker conveying system connecting the port to the cement plant. The producer expects the damage to ‘significantly impact’ its cement production capacity for a period which it is ‘not yet possible to specify.’
Melón said, “We have deployed contingency and operational continuity plans in order to ensure our supply to our customers.” It added that it could not yet quantify the ultimate impacts on its assets, liabilities or results.
