To increase production was possible due to the acquisition of modern technology: the mining combine CLS-450, the tunneling EBZ-160, the efficient operation of the mining site No. 4 (the head Maksim Divulsky) and the brigades Ruslan Kislogo and Alexei Degtyarev, the preparatory works section No. 2 (chief Oleg Shakhrauk).
DTEK's investments in the development of production at the mine Dobropolskoe last year amounted to more than 400 million UAH. Along with the volume of production, the level of incomes of the Dobropolskaya miners also increased: in comparison with January of the previous year, the average salary at the enterprise increased by almost 29.5% and amounts to UAH 10,981.
Today at the enterprises of Dobropolyeugol there is a new spiral of production development, and mine management literally experiences a second birth. More than 2 million tons of coal are planned to be mined by Dobropolsky's miners in 2018, in the plans of penetration - to pass more than 11 thousand meters of mine workings. This year two new lavas will start operation at the Dobropolskaya mine: the 9th northern and the 4th southern horizons of 450 meters, of which about 3.7 tons of coal per day will be extracted.
"Since April 2017, when Ukraine lost control over the anthracite mines on the territory of the NCP, the role of our enterprises that produce coals of gas brands has multiplied many times," says Konstantin Vyaly, director of SHU Dobropolskoe. "We are well aware that this fuel is waiting for Ukrainian energy . And the successful operation of our mines helps to fill local budgets with taxes and provides a stable salary for thousands of our employees. Back in 2017, the Dobropolsky team proved that it can successfully operate on the most modern machinery and achieve record indicators, both in drilling and production. And this year we will consolidate what has been achieved! "
