Due to the drought caused by the El Niño phenomenon, the water supply to the smelter in Indonesia's largest nickel industrial park has been limited, and the park may have to cut production by as much as 40%. Indonesia's Morovali Industrial Park is located in Sulawesi and has large-scale nickel processing facilities. Its head of media relations, Dedy Kurniawan, said in a statement that if new water sources cannot be found, the industrial park may have to cut production by 30% to 40%. Kurniawan said IMIP management is working to develop new sources of water supply in surrounding areas while taking precautions to mitigate the impact of water shortages on production.
