Fueling The World
At Fluor, we understand the many complex challenges that clients in the fuels industry face. With a long history of experience, we're proud to be one of the few global companies capable of executing large and complex engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects for the processing and renewable fuels industries. Our expertise includes consulting and design-build of new capital facilities, refineries, pipelines and offshore facilities, as well as operations retrofit and plant-betterment services.
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)
With half a century of experience working in the gas processing industry, we have participated in a wide variety of liquefied natural gas developments including liquefaction, floating LNG, mega-trains and regasification terminals.
We develop modular mid-scale LNG reference designs in collaboration with established LNG licensors and equipment suppliers. These solutions, combined with Fluor’s global footprint, can be deployed anywhere in the world, on land or water.
Our combination of LNG, fabrication, construction and marine terminal capabilities, along with project management and financing expertise, has placed Fluor in the forefront of LNG receiving terminal design.

Our regional offices provide cost-competitive, local solutions for plant engineering and small capital, brownfield projects. Teams leverage our global subject matter experts, innovative tools and data analytics for quick and flexible responses to client needs.
Utilities & Offsites
With utilities and offsite (U&O) support facilities constituting anywhere from 20% to 50% of a project's total installed cost, we recognize the importance of efficient, cost-effective U&O management. That's why we offer our expertise in the conceptual design, expansion and long-range planning of utilities and offsites.
The main U&O systems include:
Utilities
Air systems: instrument and utility air
Cooling water
Fuel systems: natural or fuel gas
Nitrogen / inerts
Power generation
Steam generation
Water systems: BFW, utility water, potable water, demineralized water and condensate
Offsites
Firewater systems
Flare systems
Flushing oil
Interconnecting piping
Loading / unloading
Tankage & storage: atmospheric, pressure and refrigerated
Waste water treatment
Our U&O experience offers clients a variety of features to address individual project needs. Acting as the project manager, we are capable of executing and integrating the work of various onsite unit designs as well as troubleshooting and analyzing complex U&O problems.
Several of Fluor's technical experts are recognized within the U&O industry and actively serve on the AIChE and API committees.

LNG Canada Export Facility
Client: LNG Canada
Location: Kitimat, British Columbia, Canada
In October 2018, LNG Canada made a final investment decision to build its liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility in Kitimat, British Columbia, Canada. The project represents the largest energy investment in Canadian history.
The LNG export facility will liquefy surplus Canadian natural gas so it can be safely exported to help meet global energy demands. Fluor's joint venture partnership with JGC Corporation will provide engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction for the project.
