Prior to the March 1985 merger of the Coastal Corp. and American Natural Resources Co. (ANR), Coastal's subsidiary, Coastal States Energy Co. (CSE), began a multimillion dollar retooling project at its Southern Utah Fuels (SUFCo) and Skyline underground coal mines. Coastal initiated the expansions to meet contract commitments that call for increased tonnages in 1986 and 1987. After installing a longwall system, SUFCo produced 1.8 million tons in 1985 and will increase annual production to 2.3 million tons in 1986 and 2.5 million in 1987. Skyline, which has a 5-million-tpy capacity, began longwall production in September and will produce close to 900,000 tons in 1986. This figure will double to 1.8 million in 1987.
