“Fluor has supported clients and safely executed projects in Saudi Arabia for more than 70 years,” remarked Mark Fields, group president of Fluor’s Energy and Chemicals unit, in a written statement.
Fluor stated that it will perform project management consultant services for the front-end engineering design, detailed engineering, procurement and construction phases of the AGIC project.
