of 400 general contractors, the company came in first for the fourth
straight year and has held this ranking for nine of the past 10 years.

overseas revenues. The company cited that economic expansion and capital
spending remain on an upward trend and that the global marketplace
offers many opportunities, particularly for its upstream and downstream
energy, petrochemicals, chemicals and diversified services units. Fluor
Daniel's global presence and multi-industry penetration will enable it
to capitalize on the impact of liberalized international trade and
investment policies, and also on the ever-increasing desire on the part
of millions of people for a higher standard of living.
