Energy Oil Sands Limited Partnership for a tank farm development
project in the Athabasca oil sands region in Alberta, Canada. Fluor

our fabrication and module assembly resources, we will drive
capital efficiencies and delivery predictability.”
Fluor recently completed the front-end engineering and design
work for the project. The EPFC phase of the project, led by Fluor’s
Calgary office, began in March 2015. Commercial operations are
expected to begin in April 2017.
