Fluor to design, build Quellaveco copper project in Peru




Fluor Corporation (FLR) has received the full notice to proceed for the engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCM) of Anglo American’s Quellaveco copper project in the Moquegua region in the south of Peru.
The project will be an open pit mine that will process 127,500 tonnes-per-day of ore via conventional crushing, grinding and flotation technology to produce 300,000 tonnes of copper per year. First copper production is expected in 2022.
The majority of work takes place at an elevation of 3,000 meters (9,842 ft.) above sea level. Fluor will pre-assemble certain structures to improve safety and quality by increasing the amount of work in a controlled environment at lower elevations.
Fluor has been responsible for early site infrastructure development since 2014.
