Fluor Unit Wins Deals
IRVINE — A Fluor Corp. unit said it has won two important refinery contracts in Eastern Europe.
The Irvine-based Fluor Daniel engineering and construction services unit will team with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. to build an oil products plant for Slovakia’s national fuel company and will revamp a major Polish oil refinery about 75 miles northwest of Warsaw. Terms of the two deals weren’t disclosed.
The so-called residue hydrocracking plant in Slovakia will turn residual fuel, a low-value product of the initial oil refining process, into higher-value products such as heating oil and diesel fuel. Once building is completed, the Bratislava plant will be turned over to Slovnaft AS, Slovakia’s state-owned producer of liquid fuels and petrochemicals.
In Poland, Fluor Daniel and its Polish subsidiary, Prosynchem Limited, will provide design, engineering, procurement and construction supervision services for the revamp of a portion of one of the refinery’s crude oil distillation plants.
