Abstract
The report is devoted to analysis of market of railway wheels in Russia and
Ukraine to estimate prospects of their expending and to forecast domestic
consumption up to 2009.
The report consists of 76 pages, 36 Tables and 20 figures. It includes 5
sections: review of production technology and grade of the products; analysis
and estimation of competitor-producers of railway wheels; analysis of
export-import flows; review of domestic and export-import prices on railway
wheels; analysis and forecast of domestic consumption.
The research was accomplished mainly by a method of desk studies, with
analysis of many information sources, first of all, state official statistics:
data of Russian State Committee on Statistics (now Federal Service of State
Statistics, or Rosstat), Ukrainian State Committee on Statistics (data on
production of the products), Russian domestic railage statistics, data of
Russian State Customs Committee and Ukrainian State Customs Committee (foreign
trade information). Besides, information directly from companies, involved in
this business, as well as database of InfoMine company were applied. Notice
that some differences in data on foreign trade transaction are connected with
inconsistency of Russian and Ukrainian official customs statistics.
Summarized data were then verified and corrected using a number of telephone
interviews with specialists of the companies, involved in the business.
This all allowed to reveal clear picture of market of railway wheels in Russia
and Ukraine (competitors, consumers) and its prospects.
