Fluor chairman and CEO David Seaton said: “This understanding would allow both parties to increase their involvement in Saudi Arabia and expand their services outside the Kingdom.
“Fluor’s legacy in Saudi Arabia dates back to 1947 and we have a strong partnership with Ma’aden, having delivered several of their mega-projects.
“We look forward to helping them advance their future projects as they continue to expand and diversify their business.”
The companies are said to have worked together for nearly ten years. During this period, Fluor has implemented work costing more than $15bn for projects, including the Ma’aden aluminum complex and the ongoing Umm Wu’al phosphate project.
