“Fluor is excited to be selected to partner with BHP to deliver this sustainable program that is critical for food security,” said Tony Morgan, president of Fluor’s Mining & Metals business. “This award is a testament to our track record of successfully delivering complex mega- projects, coupled with our expertise in fertilizer production and execution capability in western Canada.”

When completed, the Jansen site will be capable of producing approximately 8.5 million mt/y of potash. It will be one of the largest and most sustainable potash mines in the world. Project execution has already started. It will be managed through Fluor’s Calgary and Vancouver, Canada, offices.
