Fluor said it will recognize the contract value in the third quarter of 2023.

“This contract is a great example of a collaborative partnership between Stork UK and Sellafield” said Steve Hunt, Stork’s regional director in the UK. “Our team’s dedication has ensured the contract’s success since 2020. We look forward to building on our relationship over the term of the new agreement.”

The new contract is scheduled to start in November.

In 2021, Fluor announced its intention to sell Stork to focus on its core businesses and capital priorities. Fluor has concluded the sale of Stork Australia and New Zealand, and recently agreed to sell its European operations in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands. Fluor said it “continues with divestment efforts” of its remaining Stork regional businesses in the United Kingdom, Latin America and the Middle East.
