Fluor Corporation (ISIN US3434121022) was last at USD 50.62 on the NYSE at 3:59 p.m. ET on October 5, 2026, up 1.45 percent on the session. The company also named three business development leaders across nuclear power, gas-fueled power and chemicals, according to Fluor in a release dated October 5, 2026.

Energy roles target nuclear growth

Mark McClure will lead business development and strategy for nuclear power, Rachel Mickschl will take the equivalent role for gas-fueled power, and Abdullah Dirani will lead the chemicals business line. Fluor said the appointments are intended to align business development more closely with operations and expand customer relationships across the energy portfolio.

The appointments give Fluor a commercial push in businesses connected to power generation, chemicals and lower-carbon energy. The structure also keeps Dirani as general manager for the Middle East and North Africa until a successor is appointed, according to Fluor.

The award follows Fluor's second-quarter 2026 backlog of USD 26.9 billion and USD 6.1 billion of new awards, figures reported in the company's results release carried by ADVFN.
