Philip K. Asherman
President and
Chief Executive Officer
I am pleased to welcome you to the latest edition of CB&I World, our periodic
publication about CB&I activities worldwide.
We are proud to report that CB&I was recently recognized as one of the world’s
leading contractors in the Engineering News-Record 2006 Annual Survey.
We were ranked fourth globally in the Top 20 Industrial Process/Petroleum
Contractors, seventh in the Top 50 Contractors Working Abroad and 20th in the
Top 400 Contractors.
Today’s hydrocarbon industry is experiencing an unprecedented upturn in
capital spending, driven by rapidly escalating energy demand around the world.
Projects resulting from the need to boost energy supplies to meet this demand
are increasing in every sector of the oil and gas industry globally.
In addition, market fundamentals for LNG remain strong as a result of the
ongoing push for cleaner energy sources and the decline of natural gas
production in many western nations. Refineries around the world continue to
upgrade their facilities to meet environmental regulations for air quality. The
market for various clean fuels solutions for diesel and, outside the United States,
for gasoline remains strong. The emerging market for renewable energy sources
for both power generation and transportation fuels is gaining strength, driven
by sustained high oil and gas prices that have resulted from the supply/demand
disparity as demand continues to rise.
We believe CB&I is extremely well positioned to benefit from the surge in capital
spending in the global energy market. We are fortunate that our company has
been able to develop enduring relationships with our customers, and we are
focused on making sure that we have the resources and the expertise to meet
their upcoming project requirements.
