Background
The Severny coal mine (разрез Северный) is surface coal mine near Ekibastuz, Kazakhstan (Pavlodar region), Kazakhstan. Severny Coal Mine is owned and operated by Bogatyr Komir, a joint venture between Samruk Energy and United Company RUSAL.
The company conducts mining at two surface mines located close to each other, Severny mine and the larger Bogatyr coal mine. Bogatyr mine operated sections 5,6,9 and 10 of the coal field, while Severny operates sections 1,2,3 and 4.[9] Operating and technical indicators are often presented and reported jointly for the two surface mines.
The main consumers of coal from both Bogatyr Komir mines are the Ekibastuz-1 power station in Kazakhstan and Reftinskaya GRES power station in Russia, the share of shipments to which was more than 45% in 2018.[10] Other consumers include Ekibastuz-2 power station, the CHP plants in Almaty, Karaganda TPS-3 power station, and other coal-fired power plants in Kazakhstan.[11]
Joint production of Bogatyr Komir mines was 44.6 million tonnes in 2021[12] and 42.5 million tonnes in 2022.[13] About 10Mt was contributed by Severny. In 2020 joint production reached 43.4 million tonnes, of which 10 million tonnes was contributed by Severny.[14]

Expansion
According to RUSAL's website from 2016, Bogatyr Komir planned to increase Severny's mine capacity to 18 million tonnes through reconstruction by 2020.[17]In its development plans from 2016, the company talked about the implementation of the continuous-cyclical production system, but with a longer-term horizon to reach capacity of 18 million tonnes by 2034.[18] Another source from 2019 also referred to modernization of Severny with a view to expand its production capacity to 18 million tonnes per annum.[19]
Bogatyr Komir has completed the implementation of cyclical-and-continuous method for coal mining at the sister mine Bogatyr coal mine in December 2022, which should allow to increase its production capacity to 40 million tonnes. However, there was no mention of any expansion project under way at Severny in 2020-2022.[20] It appears that the project is Shelved (as of January 2023).
