BASF signs up Fluor as global engineering partner
6 Apr 2012
Houston, Texas – BASF has selected Fluor Corp. as its engineering partner for chemicals capital projects across North America. The services agreement covers conceptual and front-end engineering and design FEED projects, detailed engineering, procurement, project management and construction management services.
Fluor was selected by BASF in mid-2011 as its engineering partner in Asia and Europe. Fluor currently has multiple projects active under the partnering agreements including the FEED phase for BASFs TDI (toluene diisocyanate) project in Ludwigshafen, Germany.
“Coupled with our previous Asia and Europe partnering agreements and projects with BASF, this new North America partnership … will allow us to leverage our US and global resource talent pool to effectively align with BASFs growing global capital investment needs,” said Peter Oosterveer, president for Fluors energy & chemicals group.
The North America agreement applies to all BASF facilities in the US, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico. Fluors Houston, Texas office will lead efforts for the North America partnership agreement. Other Fluor operations centers will participate as necessary for project execution.
