Tata Steel's Dutch Arm Signs MOU

The Tata group company's Dutch division intends to provide green steel to Ford facilities in Europe post-year 2030.

It intends to begin producing green steel, or steel created without fossil fuels, at its plant in Ijmuiden, Netherlands, in 2030.

However, securing a future supply of more ecologically friendly steel is critical for Ford's goal of carbon neutrality by 2035.

Tata Steel is further also making the transition to being a large-scale manufacturer of high-quality green steel. It is already providing clients with a sizable amount of high-quality low-CO2 steel now, so it can increase the sustainability of its product offering.

This includes Tata Steel's recently launched Zeremis Carbon Lite, steel with an allocated carbon footprint reduction of up to 100%.

With this agreement, Ford became the first client committed to purchasing the green steel that Tata Steel intends to create according to the deal.

Tata Steel is transforming to become a manufacturer of substantial amounts of high-quality green steel, and it can provide clients with a sizable volume of high-quality green steel.

Tata Steel has already unveiled more than 60 cutting-edge innovations in the past ten years, from new steels that make automobiles lighter to help them live even longer.

Tata Steel became the Tata group company's most profitable company, surpassing Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) after several years, aided by rising steel prices due to the commodity super cycle.

Oil Prices Dive Below US$92 

On Tuesday, crude oil prices fell more than US$1 per barrel as the bearish economic data heightened demand fears.

Brent crude futures were down by US$1, at US$92.1 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate crude futures fell US$1 to US$ 83.6 a barrel.

With the persistent signs of uncertainty from China and the United States, the biggest oil consumer in the world weighed the market sentiment.

Also, the business activity of the US contracted for the fourth straight month in October.

Further, in the eurozone and the UK, business activity decreased in the industrial sectors as well.
