Fluor Corporation has won an engineering, procurement and construction management services contract from Shell Refining Company FOM Malaysia for the Hijau Gasoil Phase-1 project.

The project comprises a new 6,000 tonnes-per-day diesel processing unit located in Port Dickson.

Fluor will perform engineering, procurement and construction management services as a follow-on scope of work to its previous front-end engineering and design (FEED) work.

Fluor Energy & Chemicals Group president Peter Oosterveer said that this new project award from Shell follows Fluor’s successfully completed FEED work on Hijau.

The project is expected to peak at approximately 650 craft and professional employees with work performed from Fluor’s Manila, the Philippines; Haarlem, the Netherlands offices; and the Kuala Lumpur project site.
