Fluor Corporation is a global engineering, procurement, construction, and maintenance (EPCM) company that delivers large, complex projects across industries such as energy, infrastructure, mining, government, and power. Headquartered in Irving, Texas, Fluor operates through a network of subsidiaries and project teams that provide full lifecycle services—from planning and design through execution, operation, and decommissioning—on behalf of public and private sector clients. Its service portfolio includes construction, fabrication, modular assembly, operations and maintenance, and project management support.
Fluor’s origins date back to the early 20th century when John Simon Fluor founded a small construction company in Southern California. Over time, the business grew by building refineries, pipelines, and industrial facilities, particularly in oil and gas sectors, and expanded internationally into the Middle East and elsewhere. In later decades, Fluor diversified its operations beyond hydrocarbons, embracing infrastructure, environmental cleanup, power, mining, and government contracting disciplines. The company also has engaged in cleanup and remediation projects, such as the decommissioning of nuclear sites and environmental restoration contracts.
At its core, Fluor strives to position itself as a trusted long-term partner for clients facing technically challenging, capital-intensive projects. It emphasizes disciplined project execution, risk management, engineering excellence, and modular or prefabricated approaches as ways to improve predictability and control. Because its business is tied to cyclical capital investments in infrastructure, energy, and industrial sectors, Fluor often balances growth across geographies and sectors to attenuate volatility. Through its multi-service model, the company seeks to leverage scale and technical breadth—serving as both designer and constructor across integrated projects.
