Fluor was contacted by the client immediately after the fire and dispatched a team of subject matter experts in project management, engineering and construction from Greenville, South Carolina, and Houston, Texas, as well as from AMECO, who deployed to the Louisiana site the next morning.
The team conducted an expedited, in-depth survey of the situation, advised the customer of the remediation plan and immediately onboarded additional engineering, procurement and construction team members to accelerate the restoration and rebuild efforts.
Fluor's self-performed, design-build solution helped ASR Group have the first silo and associated material handling system fully operational in early December 2020, with follow-up work of completing the second silo in the first quarter of 2021.
The scope included prep of the damaged areas, design enhancements to improve reliability and risk management by utilizing new equipment selections, and a control system to better manage interdependencies, isolation and connectivity between the two silos.
