Dump Trucks Columbus OH Insight:
Construction of pipelines, particularly those intended to transport natural gas, has increased as new resources open up and export demands rise. But pipelines are just one piece of the story. The rest is about the multibillion-dollar, construction job-creating facilities necessary to process and export these energy sources.
Just this month, LNG Canada announced that it had awarded U.S.-based Fluor Corp. and its Japanese joint venture partner, JGC Corp., $14 billion contract for the engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction of a liquefied natural gas export facility in Kitimat, British Columbia. The construction phase includes the building of two independent liquefaction units, or trains, with the possibility of expanding that number to four. Job creation is expected to reach approximately 4,500 workers, with an emphasis on local and regional hiring.
Facilities like LNG Canada's provide opportunities for contractor profits, but, recently, heavy hitters in the industry like Fluor and Bechtel told major developers that they need to be more realistic about costs and schedules when they are planning these massive projects. Favoring low bids over other factors like innovation and collaboration will continue to create cost overruns and delays, experts said at the Gastech Barcelona industry gathering.
