Indian Forging Supplier — Philippines, Southeast Asia
Shivam Forge exports EN 10204 3.1 and API-certified precision hot forgings to the Philippines — supplying Nickel Asia Corporation (world's #2 nickel ore exporter — Taganito, Cagdianao, Hinatuan, Rio Tuba mines), PNOC Exploration (Malampaya gas field, Palawan — 2.7 Tcf reserves), Petron Corporation (180,000 bbl/day Bataan Refinery — Philippines' largest), Semirara Mining (4.6 million tonne/year coal, Caluya Island), and Aboitiz Power (thermal and hydro generation). CIF Manila MICT and Batangas port transit 9–12 days from Mundra. India–Philippines bilateral trade growing; Indian forgings 25–35% below Japanese alternatives. ISO 9001:2015 and API Q1 certified, Rajkot, Gujarat, India.
The Philippines is Southeast Asia's most mineral-rich archipelago, holding the world's largest nickel laterite deposits and ranking #2 globally in nickel ore exports (after Indonesia, which periodically bans exports). Nickel Asia Corporation — listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange — operates four major nickel laterite mines: Taganito (Surigao del Norte, JV with Sumitomo and Pacific Metals, feeding Taganito HPAL Plant), Cagdianao (Dinagat Islands), Hinatuan (Surigao del Sur), and Rio Tuba (Palawan, JV with Nickel Asia, Sumitomo, and Rio Tuba Nickel Mining). These mines produce saprolite and limonite ore destined for ferronickel smelters in Japan (Pacific Metals Hachinohe, Smelco), China (Tsingshan, Delong), and domestic HPAL plants. Mining equipment forgings — dump truck spindle and kingpin forgings in 4340 Q+T, excavator arm pin forgings in 4340, conveyor head shaft forgings in 42CrMo4, and slurry pump casing forgings in Duplex 2205 — are continuously required. PNOC Exploration Corporation (PEC) operates the Malampaya deepwater natural gas field (Service Contract 38, Palawan — 2.7 Tcf reserves, 380 MMSCFD production, supplying 40% of Luzon's power). Petron Corporation's Bataan Refinery (180,000 bbl/day) is the Philippines' largest and only refinery, requiring ASME B16.5 replacement flanges, API 6D valve bodies, and hydrotreater nozzle forgings for its ongoing Clean Fuels compliance upgrades. Shivam Forge delivers CIF Manila or Batangas port in 9–12 sea days from Mundra at 25–35% below Japanese supplier pricing.

The Philippines holds the world's largest nickel laterite reserves and is consistently the world's #1 or #2 nickel ore exporter — a position that drives enormous demand for mining equipment forgings from copper, gold, and nickel operations across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Nickel Asia Corporation — the Philippines' largest mining company by nickel production — operates the four most productive laterite mines in the country: Taganito (Surigao del Norte, joint venture with Sumitomo Corporation and Pacific Metals Company of Japan, producing saprolite and limonite ore for Japan's ferronickel smelters), Cagdianao (Dinagat Islands), Hinatuan (Surigao del Sur), and Rio Tuba (Palawan, joint venture with Sumitomo and Coral Bay Nickel Corporation). Combined, these mines produce over 30 million wet metric tonnes of nickel ore per year for export to Japan, China, and domestic processing. The equipment maintaining these mines — Komatsu 730E, Caterpillar 795F, and Hitachi EH3500AC haul trucks; Liebherr R9800 and CAT 6060FS hydraulic shovels; Weir WARMAN slurry pumps; FLSmidth ball mills — requires precision forged components. Shivam Forge manufactures haul truck spindle forgings in 4340 Q+T (Rm 1100 MPa, Charpy −40°C ≥47 J), excavator bucket pin forgings in 4340 (induction hardened surface 52–56 HRC), and slurry pump casing forgings in Duplex 2205 for nickel slurry service — all CIF Manila in 9–12 sea days from Mundra.
PNOC Exploration Corporation's Malampaya deepwater gas field (Service Contract 38, Palawan Sea, 850m water depth) has supplied approximately 40% of Luzon Island's power generation needs since 2001. With proven reserves of 2.7 Tcf and current production of 380 MMSCFD, Malampaya feeds the four gas-fired power plants at Santa Rita, San Lorenzo, Ilijan, and Avion (combined 3,000+ MW) via 504 km subsea pipeline from Palawan to Batangas. The field's deepwater production systems — Xmas tree assemblies in Super Duplex 2507, subsea manifold closure forgings in Alloy 625, and wellhead casing hanger forgings in 4145H modified alloy steel — require continuous MRO supply. Petron Corporation's Bataan Refinery at Limay (180,000 bbl/day — the Philippines' only refinery after Shell's Tabangao refinery ceased refining operations) processes imported crude into gasoline (RON 91, 95, 100), diesel, jet fuel, LPG, and bitumen for the Philippine domestic market. The refinery's Clean Air Act compliance programme (Euro IV fuel standards) requires continuous hydrotreater upgrades: P91 nozzle forgings for new hydrotreating reactors, API 6D ball valves for ULSD and ULSG service, and FCC unit regenerator forgings in A182 F347H stabilized stainless.
Semirara Mining & Power Corporation — the Philippines' largest coal producer operating the Carmen and Panian open-pit mines on Caluya Island, Antique province — produces 4.6 million tonne/year of sub-bituminous coal for Philippine and export markets. The mine's operating fleet includes 100+ haul trucks (Komatsu HD785, Caterpillar 785D), hydraulic excavators (CAT 6040, Komatsu PC4000), and a coal preparation plant producing 15 million tonne/year of washed coal. Critical forging requirements: bucket wheel excavator and rope shovel main shaft forgings in 4340 Q+T (Rm 1000 MPa, ductile to −20°C), coal crusher hammer forgings in 13Mn Hadfield manganese steel (work-hardening to 400+ HB in service), and conveyor pulley shaft forgings in 42CrMo4 Q+T (tensile 900–1000 MPa). Shivam Forge's mining equipment forging expertise, combined with 9–12 day CIF Manila logistics and ASEAN-India AITIGA preferential import duty (0–5%), positions Indian forgings as the most cost-competitive option for Philippine mining operations.
Aboitiz Power's thermal generation fleet — Masinloc Coal Power Plant (600 MW, Zambales), Therma South (300 MW Davao), Therma Marine floating power plants, and GN Power Bataan (420 MW) — plus its hydro portfolio (SN Aboitiz Power's Magat 360 MW, Binga 100 MW, Ambuklao 105 MW) create substantial demand for power generation forgings: steam turbine disc forgings in 1CrMoV alloy (ASTM A470 Class 7, tempered to 900–950 MPa tensile), generator rotor shaft forgings in 26NiCrMoV14-5 (ASTM A469 Class 2, Rm 850–1000 MPa), and hydro turbine Francis runner forgings in CA6NM martensitic stainless (ASTM A743 Grade CA6NM, minimum Rm 760 MPa, minimum ductility 15% EL). Shivam Forge's capability to supply these specialty power generation forgings — combined with EN 10204 3.1 material traceability, UT inspection per EN 10228-3, and 9–12 day CIF Manila transit — makes us the most competitive non-Japanese precision forging supplier for the Philippines market.
