Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) was awarded a contract by Shaanxi
Non-Ferrous Tian Hong REC Silicon Materials Co., Ltd., (TianREC) to
provide detailed design services and technical support for its new
polysilicon plant to be located in Yulin, Shaanxi Province, China.
Fluor will book the contract for an undisclosed value in the first
quarter of 2015.
“This project award reconfirms Fluor’s global leadership in the
engineering, procurement and construction of polysilicon and silane
gas processing plants and our ongoing positive capital project
experience and relationship with REC Silicon,” said Ken Choudhary,
president of Fluor’s Energy & Chemicals business in the Asia
Pacific region. “We look forward to supporting TianREC on this
world-class, state-of-the-art facility.”
The new plant, which will have an anticipated total investment
of more than $1 billion, will use REC Silicon's next generation
fluidized bed reactor technology. It is expected to have a capacity
to produce 18,000 metric tons of granular polysilicon, an
additional 1,000 metric tons of Siemens polysilicon and 500 metric
tons of silane gas loading.
The award of the detailed design and technical support contract
follows Fluor’s successful completion of the front-end engineering
and design package project, and it builds upon the successful
completion of several previous projects for REC Silicon.
Fluor’s Shanghai office will execute the project with support
from Fluor’s offices in Aliso Viejo, Calif. and New Delhi. The
Shanghai office has successfully completed other recent polysilicon
projects in China.
TianREC is a joint venture between Shaanxi Non-Ferrous Tian Hong
New Energy Co., Ltd., and REC Silicon Inc.
