Dear friends,

Welcome to the website of the Siberian Coal Energy Company!

Here you will find comprehensive and useful information about our company, its strategic targets, priorities, operating principles, and about the people who make SUEK a dynamically developing success.

We expect this website to serve as an efficient means of communication with our partners, shareholders, investors and the professional community. Moreover, as Russia's major coal company, we want it to become an important source of information that represent the current situation in both Russian and international coal sectors, as well as depicting the important role that coal plays in today's global power industry. With coal confidently regaining its number one position as a highly efficient and ecologically friendly fuel, we feel that sharing information about this resource is an important responsibility.

SUEK is the leading Russian fuel and energy company, the largest producer and supplier of coal in the nation, and one of the major global players in its sector. Furthermore, we plan to become one of the key suppliers of electric power in the near future. During the first years of operation, we formed a habit of setting a high standard with our objectives; we install new equipment in our operating units, introduce more efficient and safer technologies, and develop new domestic and international markets. We work based on a new approach to social responsibility, using the highest standards of corporate management as guidelines. We have always been firm and consistent in pursuing objectives , and our success in so many endeavours is owes itself to our diligence.

We have now reached the point where we can turn to developing a highly efficient fuel and energy corporation that holds leading positions in the global market. By creating new opportunities for the coal-based power generation in Russia, SUEK will carry on as a reliable and effective power supplier, an attractive company for investors thanks to its integration of the respective advantages of the coal producing and power generation sectors.

Thank you for your interest in OAO SUEK.

Vladimir Rashevsky, General Director
