We are honored to support BASF’s strategic growth in China with this new Verbund site project.”

Fluor provided critical engineering, procurement and construction support for BASF’s integrated operations, including an EOEG process unit, 220kV substation, steam plant, water treatment systems, seawater intake, distributed cooling towers, wastewater treatment and waste handling units, container yard, automated warehouses, and site‑wide piping and logistics infrastructure.

“Delivering the project is a tremendous achievement and a proud moment for our team,” said Charles McManemin, President of Fluor’s Chemicals business. “Our long-standing partnership with BASF is built on trust, technical excellence and a shared commitment to safe, reliable project execution. This milestone reflects years of collaboration, innovation and disciplined performance across all phases of work.”

Fluor began early site work in late 2021 and, at peak, approximately 13,000 workers were engaged across multiple construction areas.

Once fully operational, the Zhanjiang Verbund Site will be BASF’s third largest Verbund site worldwide after Ludwigshafen and Antwerp. The site will serve as a model for sustainable production in China and globally, and mainly supply customers in the Chinese market, the largest and fastest growing chemical market in the world.
