Annual Report (Form 10-K), fiscal year 1993

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
Fluor Corporation ("Fluor" or the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware in 1978 as a successor in interest to a California corporation of the same name that was originally incorporated in 1924. Its executive offices are located at 3333 Michelson Drive, Irvine, California 92730, telephone number (714) 975- 2000.
Through Fluor Daniel, Inc. and other domestic and foreign subsidiaries, the Company provides engineering, procurement, construction, maintenance and related technical services on a worldwide basis to an extensive range of industrial, commercial, utility, natural resources, energy and governmental clients.
The Company maintains investments in coal-related businesses through its ownership of Massey Coal Company ("Massey"). In November of 1992, the Company announced its decision to exit its lead business and classified the business as a discontinued operation in the Company's consolidated financial statements.
A summary of the Company's operations and activities by business segment and geographic area is set forth below.
ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION
The Fluor Daniel group of domestic and foreign companies ("Fluor Daniel") provides a full range of engineering, construction and related services on a worldwide basis to clients in five broad market sectors: Hydrocarbon, Industrial, Government, Process and Power. The types of services provided by Fluor Daniel, directly or through companies or partnerships jointly owned or affiliations with other companies, include: feasibility studies, conceptual design, engineering, procurement, project and construction management, construction, maintenance, plant operations, technical, project financing, quality assurance/quality control, start-up assistance, site evaluation, licensing, consulting and environmental services.
Fluor Constructors International, Inc. ("Fluor Constructors") is organized and operated separately from Fluor Daniel. Fluor Constructors provides construction management, construction and maintenance services in the United States and Canada. Fluor Constructors is the Company's union construction arm.
American Equipment Company, a wholly owned Fluor subsidiary, provides construction equipment, tools and related asset management services to Fluor Daniel, Fluor Constructors and the construction/maintenance industry at large through strategically located support centers.
The engineering and construction business is conducted under various types of contractual arrangements, including cost reimbursable (plus fixed or percentage fee), all-inclusive rate, unit price, fixed or maximum price and incentive fee contracts. Contracts are either competitively bid and awarded or individually negotiated. In terms of dollar amount, the majority of contracts are of the cost reimbursable type. In certain instances, the Company has guaranteed facility completion by a scheduled acceptance date and/or achievement of certain acceptance and performance testing levels. Failure to meet any such schedule or performance requirements could result in costs that exceed project profit margins.
The markets served by the business are highly competitive and for the most part require substantial resources, particularly highly skilled and experienced technical personnel. There are a large number of companies competing in the markets served by the business. Competition is primarily centered on performance and the ability to provide the engineering, planning and management skills required to complete complex projects in a timely and cost efficient manner. The business derives its competitive strength from its diversity, reputation for quality, worldwide procurement capability, project management expertise, geographic coverage, ability to meet client requirements by performing construction on either a union or non-
union basis, ability to execute projects of varying sizes, strong safety record and lengthy experience with a wide range of services and technologies.
Design and engineering services provided by the business involve the continual development of new and improved versions of existing processes, materials or techniques, some of which are patented. However, none of the existing or pending patents held or licensed by the business are considered essential to operations. Generally, the development and improvement of processes, materials and techniques are performed as part of design and engineering services in connection with the projects undertaken for various clients.
FLUOR DANIEL
Fluor Daniel serves five broad market sectors: Hydrocarbon, Industrial, Government, Process and Power. Services are provided through 12 global business units that focus on specific markets within each sector. The business units rely on a network of operations centers and regional offices to provide resources and expertise in support of project execution worldwide.
In the United States, services are provided primarily through Fluor Daniel, Inc. Principal offices are located in Irvine, California; Greenville, South Carolina; Houston (Sugar Land office), Texas; Chicago, Illinois; Anchorage, Alaska; Tulsa, Oklahoma; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (Marlton, New Jersey office). Additional North American operations are conducted through Fluor Daniel Canada, Inc. in Canada and Fluor Daniel Caribbean, Inc. in Puerto Rico.
The international operations of the group are divided into regional areas. The Asia Pacific region includes the following operating subsidiaries: Fluor Daniel Australia Limited; Fluor Daniel China, Inc.; Fluor Daniel Eastern, Inc. (Indonesia); Fluor Daniel Engineers & Constructors, Ltd. (Hong Kong); Fluor Daniel (Japan) Inc.; Fluor Daniel (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd.; Fluor Daniel Pacific, Inc. (the Philippines); and Fluor Daniel Thailand, Ltd. Operating subsidiaries for the Europe region include: Fluor Daniel B.V. (the Netherlands); Fluor Daniel Espana, S.A. (Spain); Fluor Daniel GmbH (Germany); and Fluor Daniel Limited (England). Operating subsidiaries for the Middle East region include Fluor Daniel Arabia Limited. Latin American operations are conducted in Venezuela through Tecnofluor C.A. (a company which is jointly owned with Tecnoconsult S.A., a Venezuelan engineering company), in Mexico through ICA Fluor Daniel (a joint equity company with Grupo ICA) and through Fluor Daniel Chile S.A.
While the United States will remain an important market for Fluor Daniel's services, increasingly the largest share of opportunities are located outside the United States. Demand for higher living standards is driving strong economic growth in developing economies, particularly in the Asia Pacific and Latin American regions. Expansion of basic industries is increasing fundamental energy requirements and infrastructure needs. Globalization of markets and geopolitical change is also stimulating strategic investments in new production facilities in these emerging markets.
Due largely to weak economies and capital spending within certain United States, European and Middle Eastern markets, the Government, Process, Industrial and Power sectors experienced declines in new awards in fiscal 1993 that were only partially offset by an increase in the Hydrocarbon sector. There continue to be a number of megaproject opportunities, particularly outside the United States. These projects develop slowly and, therefore, could create variability in the Company's incoming order and backlog pattern.
The operations of Fluor Daniel are detailed below by market sector.

BACKLOG
The following table sets forth the consolidated backlog of Fluor's engineering and construction segment at October 31, 1993 and 1992 (grouped by business sector):
The dollar amount of the backlog is not necessarily indicative of the future earnings of Fluor related to the performance of such work. Although backlog represents only business which is considered to be firm, there can be no assurance that cancellations or scope adjustments will not occur. Due to additional factors outside of Fluor's control, such as changes in project schedules, Fluor cannot predict with certainty the portion of backlog not to be performed in fiscal 1994.
Approximately $2.5 billion of the Hydrocarbon sector backlog is attributable to two projects for companies affiliated with Royal Dutch Shell (the Rayong Refinery project in Thailand and the Pernis Refinery in the Netherlands). Approximately $2 billion of the Government sector backlog is attributable to the DOE Fernald Project and subject to government funding determined on an annual basis.
During fiscal 1993, the backlog of certain business units was reclassified to reflect an internal realignment of these units between the five market sectors. This resulted in reclassifying approximately $1 billion of business in the food and beverage products area from the Industrial sector to the Process sector. Balances at October 31, 1992 and 1993 have been restated to conform with the current business unit alignment.
COAL INVESTMENT
A. T. Massey Coal Company, Inc., which is headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, and its subsidiaries conduct Massey's coal-related businesses and are collectively referred to herein as the "Massey Companies."
The Massey Companies produce, process and sell bituminous, low sulfur coal of steam and metallurgical grades from 15 mining complexes (11 of which include preparation plants) located in West Virginia,
Kentucky and Tennessee. At October 31, 1993, two of the mining complexes were still in development and not yet producing coal. A third mining complex is idle pending negotiation of a labor agreement.
Operations at certain of the facilities are conducted in part through the use of independent contract miners. The Massey Companies also purchase and resell coal produced by unrelated companies. Steam coal is used primarily by utilities as fuel for power plants. Metallurgical coal is used primarily to make coke for use in the manufacture of steel.
For each of the three years in the period ended October 31, 1993, the Massey Companies' (a) production (expressed in thousands of short tons) of steam coal and metallurgical coal, respectively, was 16,048 and 5,163 for fiscal 1993, 13,832 and 3,867 for fiscal 1992, and 13,472 and 3,421 for fiscal 1991, and (b) sales (expressed in thousands of short tons) of coal produced by it and others, respectively, were 21,192 and 2,302 for fiscal 1993, 17,538 and 4,402 for fiscal 1992, and 16,982 and 6,578 for fiscal 1991.
A large portion of the steam coal produced by the Massey Companies is sold to domestic utilities under long-term contracts. Metallurgical coal is sold to both foreign and domestic steel producers. Approximately 41% of the Massey Companies' fiscal 1993 coal production was sold under long-term contracts, 88% of which was steam coal and 12% of which was metallurgical coal. Approximately 11% of the coal tonnage sold by the Massey Companies in fiscal 1993 was sold on the export market.
Massey is among the five largest marketers of coal in the United States. The coal market is a mature market with many strong competitors. Competition is primarily dependent upon coal price, transportation cost, producer reliability and characteristics of coal available for sale. The management of Massey considers Massey to be generally well-positioned with respect to these factors in comparison to its principal competitors.
On February 22, 1993, the Massey Companies acquired certain assets in Pike County, Kentucky, from Pittston Coal Company, including an estimated 32 million tons of undeveloped coal reserves and three million tons of developed coal reserves with related preparation plant and mining facilities. Since the undeveloped coal reserves are strategically located near existing mining and coal processing facilities of the Massey Companies, development capital requirements will be modest. The economic life of the existing Massey operations in the vicinity will be significantly extended by this acquisition.
On November 15, 1993, the Massey Companies acquired the assets of W-P Coal Company located in Logan County, West Virginia. Major components of the W-P Coal acquisition include approximately 40 million tons of reserves and a modern preparation plant. Simultaneously with the acquisition, the Massey Companies entered into a long-term coal supply agreement with Wheeling Pittsburgh Steel Corporation, a W-P Coal Company affiliate.
Recently passed acid rain legislation is generally anticipated to benefit prices for low sulfur coal. Massey intends to continue to evaluate and pursue, in appropriate circumstances, the acquisition of additional low sulfur coal reserves.
The Coal Industry Retiree Health Benefits Act of 1992 (the "Act") provides that certain retired coal miners who were members of the United Mine Workers of America, along with their spouses, are guaranteed health care benefits. The Massey Companies' obligation under the Act is currently estimated to aggregate $64 million which will be recognized as expense as payments are assessed.
The management of the Massey Companies estimates that, as of October 31, 1993, the Massey Companies had total recoverable reserves (expressed in thousands of short tons) of 1,088,601; 456,810 of which are assigned recoverable reserves and 631,791 of which are unassigned recoverable reserves; and 799,287 of which are proven recoverable reserves and 289,314 of which are probable recoverable reserves.
The management of the Massey Companies estimates that approximately 29% of the total reserves listed above consist of reserves that would be considered primarily metallurgical grade coal. They also estimate
that approximately 63% of all reserves contain less than 1% sulfur. A portion of the steam coal reserves could be beneficiated to metallurgical grade by coal preparation plants, and a portion of the metallurgical coal reserves could be sold as high quality steam coal, if market conditions warrant.
"Reserves" means that part of a coal deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. "Recoverable reserves" means coal which is recoverable by the use of existing equipment and methods under federal and state laws now in effect. "Assigned recoverable reserves" means reserves which can reasonably be expected to be mined from existing or planned mines and processed in existing or planned plants. "Unassigned recoverable reserves" means reserves for which there are no specific plans for mining and which will require for their recovery substantial capital expenditures for mining and processing facilities. "Proven recoverable reserves" refers to deposits of coal which are substantiated by adequate information, including that derived from exploration, current and previous mining operations, outcrop data and knowledge of mining conditions. "Probable recoverable reserves" refers to deposits of coal which are based on information of a more preliminary or limited extent or character, but which are considered likely.
DISCONTINUED LEAD OPERATION
In November 1992, the Company announced its decision to exit its lead business, conducted primarily through The Doe Run Company ("Doe Run"). As a result, the Company's lead segment has been classified as a discontinued operation in the Company's consolidated financial statements. During 1993, the Company made substantial progress toward the disposition of the lead business. While the outcome of such disposition cannot be determined with certainty at this time, management's intent to dispose of the lead business remains unaltered and management believes that a disposal will be accomplished during fiscal 1994.
OTHER MATTERS
ENVIRONMENTAL, SAFETY AND HEALTH MATTERS
The Company's natural resource operations are affected by federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding environmental protection and plant and mine safety and health. It is impossible to predict the full impact of future legislative or regulatory developments on such operations, because the standards to be met, as well as the technology and length of time available to meet those standards, continue to develop and change.
Under the federal Clean Air Act, as amended, which is applicable to Doe Run's lead smelters, the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") is authorized to promulgate ambient air quality standards for certain identified pollutants. Each state is required to develop an implementation plan that is designed to achieve such ambient air quality standards through emission limitations and related requirements. Upon approval by the EPA, these state implementation plans become federally enforceable. The State of Missouri is required to develop implementation plans to control lead emissions from the two Doe Run lead smelters. An implementation plan was approved by the State for the Buick smelter on June 24, 1993, and has been submitted to EPA for approval. The Buick plan requires installation of various projects, but only if the primary smelter portion of the facility is to be operated. A supplemental implementation plan was approved for the Herculaneum smelter on June 24, 1993, and has also been submitted to EPA for approval. The Herculaneum plan requires the installation of $2.5 million in additional capital projects, with a final completion date of October, 1994.
In September 1988, the EPA listed primary lead smelter surface impoundment solids as a hazardous waste under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. In anticipation of the final issuance of EPA regulations, the Company is in the process of eliminating surface impoundments (all of which are located at its Buick smelter). This corrective action was substantially completed by the end of fiscal 1993.
The Company believes that with completion of this corrective action, the Company will be in compliance with final EPA regulations when issued.
The Company is affected by and complies with other federal, state and local laws relating to environmental protection, safety and health applicable to all or part of its natural resource operations, including but not limited to the federal Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977; Occupational Safety and Health Act; Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977; Water Pollution Control Act, as amended by the Clean Water Act of 1977; Toxic Substances Control Act; Black Lung Benefits Revenue Act of 1977; and Black Lung Benefits Reform Act of 1977.
In fiscal 1993, Fluor made approximately $5.4 million in expenditures to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in connection with its coal investment, none of which were capital expenditures. Fluor anticipates making $11.3 million and $8.9 million in such non-capital expenditures in fiscal 1994 and 1995, respectively. Of these expenditures, $3.7 million, $9.6 million and $7.2 million for fiscal 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively, are (in the case of fiscal 1993) or are anticipated to be (in the case of fiscal 1994 and 1995) for surface reclamation. Existing reserves are believed to be adequate to cover actual and anticipated surface reclamation expenditures. Other expenditures will be expensed as incurred.
In fiscal 1993, Fluor made approximately $4.3 million in capital expenditures and $3.2 million in other expenditures to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in connection with its discontinued lead business.
Other
In 1986, the California North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board for the State of California requested that the Company perform a site investigation of a property in Northern California designated as a hazardous waste site under the California Hazardous Waste Control Act. The Company formerly owned the property. The California Environmental Protection Agency has assumed lead agency status for any required remedial action at the site. The Company signed a Consent Order to perform a remedial investigation/feasibility study that will determine the extent of contamination for purposes of determining the remedial action required to remedy and/or remove the contamination.
St. Joe Minerals Corporation ("St. Joe"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Fluor, is participating as a potentially responsible party at several different sites pursuant to proceedings under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("Superfund"). Other parties have also been identified as potentially responsible parties at all but one of these sites, and many of these parties have shared in the costs associated with the sites. Investigative and/or remedial activities are ongoing at each site. In 1987, St. Joe sold its zinc mining and smelting division to Zinc Corporation of America ("ZCA"). As part of the agreement, St. Joe and Fluor agreed to indemnify ZCA for certain environmental liabilities arising from operations conducted prior to the sale. During the 1993 fiscal year, ZCA has made claims under this indemnity against St. Joe for anticipated environmental expenditures at three of its major operating facilities. These claims are the subject of ongoing discussions between St. Joe, ZCA and other potentially responsible parties, including parties who have given similar contractual indemnities to St. Joe. St. Joe has initiated a proceeding against certain of its insurance carriers alleging that the investigative and remediation costs incurred by St. Joe in connection with its environmental proceedings are covered by insurance. This proceeding is in its early stages and no credit or offset for any such coverage has been taken into account by Fluor in establishing its reserves for future environmental costs.
The Company does not believe that the claims or proceedings identified in the two preceding paragraphs, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact upon its operations or financial condition.

ITEM 3.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Fluor and its subsidiaries, incident to their business activities, are parties to a number of legal proceedings in various stages of development, including but not limited to those described below. The majority of these proceedings, other than environmental proceedings, involve matters as to which liability, if any, of Fluor or its subsidiaries would be adequately covered by insurance. With respect to litigation outside the scope of applicable insurance coverage and to the extent insured claims may exceed liability limits, it is the opinion of the management of Fluor, based on reports of counsel, that these matters individually and in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial position or results of operations of Fluor.

PART III
ITEM 10.



ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT.
Information concerning Fluor's executive officers is included under the caption "Executive Officers of the Registrant" following Part I, Item 4. Other information required by this item has been omitted because Fluor will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") a definitive proxy statement pursuant to Regulation 14A, involving the election of directors, not later than 120 days after the close of Fluor's fiscal year ended October 31, 1993.
ITEM 11.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.
Fluor maintains certain employee benefit plans and programs in which its executive officers and directors are participants. Copies of these plans and programs are set forth or incorporated by reference as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.18 inclusive to this report. Certain of these plans and programs provide for payment of benefits or for acceleration of vesting of benefits upon the occurrence of a change of control of Fluor as that term is defined in such plans and programs. The amounts payable thereunder would represent an increased cost to be paid by Fluor (and indirectly by its stockholders) in the event of a change in control of Fluor. This increased cost would be a factor to be taken into account by a prospective purchaser in determining whether, and at what price, it would seek control of the Company and whether it would seek the removal of then existing management.
If a change of control were to have occurred on October 31, 1993, the additional amounts payable by Fluor, either in cash or in stock, if each of the five most highly compensated executive officers and all executive officers as a group were thereupon involuntarily terminated without cause would be as follows:
-------- (1) Payable in cash. (2) Value at October 31, 1993 of previously awarded restricted stock which would vest upon change of control. (3) Lump sum entitlement of previously awarded benefits which would vest upon change of control.
Further disclosure regarding this item has been omitted because Fluor will file with the Commission a definitive proxy statement pursuant to Regulation 14A, involving the election of directors, not later than 120 days after the close of Fluor's fiscal year ended October 31, 1993.
ITEM 12.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT.
This item has been omitted because Fluor will file with the Commission a definitive proxy statement pursuant to Regulation 14A, involving the election of directors, not later than 120 days after the close of Fluor's fiscal year ended October 31, 1993.
ITEM 13.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
