Fluor and Sacyr form new joint venture

Fluor Corporation announced today that it has signed an agreement to divest 50 percent of shares in its Spanish operations,  Fluor S.A., to Sacyr Industrial S.L.U., a leading multinational Spanish construction company. The new entity, SacyrFluor, will be headquartered in Fluor’s Madrid operations center. The value of the divestiture is €39  million.
 
SacyrFluor will provide project management, engineering, procurement,  construction management and self-perform construction services for the  energy and chemicals industry in Spain, Southern Europe, North Africa  and certain countries in South America.
 
“Creating this new company supports Fluor’s global strategy to provide  clients with truly integrated business solutions for their project needs,” said David Seaton, Fluor’s chairman and chief executive officer. “Combining Fluor’s project management, engineering and procurement services with Sacyr’s construction capabilities will provide our clients with capital efficiencies through a simplified project structure and improved opportunities for cost savings.”
 
Pedro Sigüenza, chief executive officer of Sacyr Industrial, said,  “SacyrFluor is the ideal companion for Sacyr Industrial, enabling us to  boost our oil and gas business and increase our capacity to take on larger engineering, procurement and construction projects.”
 
“Fluor and Sacyr have together successfully completed two large oil and gas projects, so we already have a track record and have gained an excellent understanding of each other’s company ethos and cultures,” said Miguel Angel Gomez, Fluor’s vice president of Energy and Chemicals and general manager for Spain and North Africa. “Together with Sacyr’s management, we are looking forward to offering our clients across the regions an improved value proposition to support their project demands.”
