According to the company, the new location will offer a range of services to Fluor’s clients in the energy, chemicals, industrial, infrastructure, operations and maintenance sectors. Nearly 100 employees are expected to be working in the 15,000 square-foot facility by the end of 2008.

The Singapore office will offer a base of operations to serve many of Fluor’s local client project sites and will complement existing Asian operations located in the Philippines, Indonesia, India and China.

David Seaton, Fluor’s group president of energy and chemicals, said: Our expansion in Singapore is a direct response to the needs of our clients. Having a strong base of operations in Singapore will help Fluor better execute our projects and meet client goals as well as enhance our ability to work with the people and business community in southeast Asia.
