Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) announced today that it has been
named as a finalist in three categories including oil and gas,
research project, and diversity and inclusion for the Institution
of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) Global 2019 Awards. Winners will be
announced at an awards event being held in the UK on November 7,
2019.
“Fluor is delighted to have been selected as a finalist for
these prestigious industry awards as they celebrate the 25th year
of achievement by engineers and their innovative approach to
finding solutions for the challenges facing the global energy and
chemicals industry,” said Simon Nottingham, president of Fluor’s
Energy & Chemicals business in Europe, Africa and Middle East.
“We are proud to be finalists with some top leading companies and
wish everyone good luck at the awards.”
A finalist in two separate categories, Fluor’s patent-pending
Oxygen-Enhanced Claus CO2 Recovery Process (OEC2RP) technology
recovers carbon dioxide from sour gases efficiently, safely and
cost effectively. The technology, developed by Fluor’s Thomas Chow,
Ghaith Aljazzar, Denny Li and Ryan Chow, provides a lower capital
and operations cost solution in comparison to traditional carbon
dioxide recovery processes.
Fluor’s “Innovation Unwrapped” annual hackathon event was also
named as a finalist. Each year, global employees competed to work
together to solve issues provided by Fluor’s clients. Driven by
Fluor’s Business Transformation & Innovation group led by
Maureen Price (executive director), its purpose is to drive
innovation through diversity and inclusion. Over the past four
years, the event has proven successful in identifying industry
solutions.
The IChemE was established in 1880 and today has more than
37,000 members in more than 100 countries.
