PART I

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
3353 Michelson Drive, Irvine, California 92698, telephone number (714) 975-2000.

Through Fluor Daniel, Inc. and other domestic and foreign subsidiaries,
the Company provides design, engineering, procurement, construction, maintenance
and other diversified 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 A. T. Massey Coal Company, Inc. ("Massey").

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 design, engineering, procurement, construction,
maintenance and other diversified services to clients in a broad range of
industrial and geographic markets on a worldwide basis. 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, detail engineering, procurement, project and construction
management, construction, maintenance, plant operations, technical support,
project finance, quality assurance/quality control, start-up assistance, site
evaluation, licensing, consulting, construction equipment sales and leasing,
temporary technical and non-technical staffing 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.

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. While, in terms of dollar amount, the majority of
contracts are of the cost reimbursable type, there has been an increase in the
volume of cost-reimbursable contracts with incentive-fee arrangements and in the
volume of fixed or unit price contracts. In certain instances, the Company
guarantees 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 additional costs and the
amount of such additional costs could 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. A large number of companies are competing in the markets
served by the business. Competition is primarily centered on performance and the
ability to provide the design, engineering, planning, management and project
execution skills required to complete complex projects in a safe, timely and
cost efficient manner. The engineering and construction business derives its
competitive strength from its diversity, reputation for quality,
cost-effectiveness, worldwide procurement capability, project management
expertise, geographic coverage, ability to meet client requirements by
performing construction on either a union or open shop 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 engineering and
construction 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's operations are organized into industry groups responsible
for identifying and capitalizing on opportunities in their market segments on a
global basis. Individual operating companies within the groups focus on specific
clients, industries and markets. The operating companies rely on a network of
globally located engineering offices to provide resources and expertise in
support of project execution worldwide. In addition to industry groups, Fluor
Daniel's operations also include the Global Sales and Strategies Group which is
responsible for strategic planning and provides sales and marketing support and
assistance to all of the other groups.

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. 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.

The operations of Fluor Daniel are detailed below by industry group:

BACKLOG

The following table sets forth the consolidated backlog of Fluor's
engineering and construction segment at October 31, 1997 and 1996 by industry
group:



1997 1996

Power and Government ......... 2,092 3,621
Diversified Services ......... 716 737

$14,370 $15,757

The following table sets forth the consolidated backlog of Fluor's
engineering and construction segment at October 31, 1997 and 1996 by region:



1997 1996
------- -------
(IN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)

United States........................ $ 5,665 $ 7,326
Asia Pacific (including Australia)... 3,959 4,402
Europe, Africa and Middle East ...... 3,828 2,677
The Americas ........................ 918 1,352
------- -------
$14,370 $15,757
======= =======


Estimated portion not to be performed during fiscal 1998: 30%


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 its October 31,
1997 backlog estimated to be performed subsequent to fiscal 1998.

Approximately $1.5 billion of the Process Group's backlog at October 31,
1997, is attributable to the Yanpet project in Saudi Arabia. The decrease in the
Industrial Group's backlog at October 31, 1997 when compared with October 31,
1996 is due primarily to lower mining and metals awards activity in 1997.
Backlog in the Power and Government Group declined in fiscal 1997 compared with
fiscal 1996 primarily due to work performed at the DOE Fernald project and the
Paiton project. In addition, backlog in the Power and Government Group was
further affected by changes in new awards reporting for the Hanford project.
Previously, in fiscal 1996, Fluor recognized a $1.0 billion new award for the
Hanford project based upon the initial authorization for the project, which
represented the estimated total value of the work to be performed for the entire
project during fiscal 1997. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997, based upon
experience gained in 1997 regarding the DOE's fee determination procedures for
the Hanford project, Fluor recognized a new award of $220 million representing
only its estimated proportionate share of the work to be performed at the
Hanford site in 1998.

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 20 mining complexes (19 of which include
preparation plants) located in West Virginia, Kentucky, Virginia and Tennessee.
At October 31, 1997, one of the mining complexes was still in development and
not yet producing coal.

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, 1997, the
Massey Companies' production (expressed in thousands of short tons) of steam
coal and metallurgical coal, respectively, was 19,798 and 16,757 for fiscal
1997, 17,578 and 13,616 for fiscal 1996 and 15,790 and 11,634 for fiscal 1995.
Sales (expressed in thousands of short tons) of coal produced by the Massey
Companies were 35,643 for fiscal year 1997, 31,091 for fiscal year 1996 and
27,410 for fiscal 1995.

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 61% of the Massey
Companies' fiscal 1997 coal production was sold under long-term contracts, 60%
of which was steam coal and 40% of which was metallurgical coal. Approximately
14% of the coal tonnage sold by the Massey Companies in fiscal 1997 was sold
outside of North America.

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.

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
approximately $42 million which will be recognized as expensed as payments are
made. The amount expensed during fiscal 1997 approximated $7.0 million.

The management of the Massey Companies estimates that, as of October 31,
1997, the Massey Companies had total recoverable reserves (expressed in
thousands of short tons) of 1,763,475; 740,775 of which are assigned recoverable
reserves and 1,022,700 of which are unassigned recoverable reserves; and
1,286,946 of which are proven recoverable reserves and 476,529 of which are
probable recoverable reserves.

The management of the Massey Companies estimates that approximately 36% of
the total reserves listed above consist of reserves that would be considered
primarily metallurgical grade coal. They also estimate that approximately 67% 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
substantially all of the metallurgical coal reserves could be sold as high
quality steam coal, if market conditions warrant.

11

"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.


OTHER MATTERS

ENVIRONMENTAL, SAFETY AND HEALTH MATTERS

The Massey Companies are affected by and comply with federal, state and
local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and plant and
mine safety and health, 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; Black Lung Benefits Revenue Act of 1977; and Black Lung
Benefits Reform Act of 1977. 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.

In fiscal 1997, Massey expended approximately $7.1 million to comply with
environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, none of which were
capitalized. Massey anticipates making $10.3 million and $9.8 million in such
non-capital expenditures in fiscal 1998 and 1999, respectively. Of these
expenditures, $5.1 million, $6.5 million and $5.9 million for fiscal 1997, 1998
and 1999, respectively, were or are anticipated to be for surface reclamation.
Existing financial reserves are believed to be adequate to cover actual and
anticipated reclamation expenditures.


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.

In 1994, Fluor completed the sale of its lead business. The sale by Fluor
of its lead business included St. Joe Minerals Corporation ("St. Joe") and its
environmental liabilities for several different lead mining, smelting and other
lead related environmental sites. As a condition of the St. Joe sale, however,
Fluor retained responsibility for certain non-lead related environmental
liabilities arising out of St. Joe's former zinc mining and smelting division,
but only to the extent that such liabilities are not covered by St. Joe's
comprehensive general liability insurance. These liabilities arise out of three
zinc facilities located in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, Monaca, Pennsylvania and
Balmat, New York.

The Company believes, based upon present information available to it, that
its accruals with respect to future environmental costs are adequate and such
future costs will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated
financial position, results of operations or liquidity. However, the imposition



11
12
of more stringent requirements under environmental laws or regulations, new
developments or changes regarding site cleanup costs or the allocation of such
costs among potentially responsible parties, or a determination that the Company
is potentially responsible for the release of hazardous substances at sites
other than those currently identified, could result in additional expenditures
or the provision of additional accruals in expectation of such expenditures.

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.

to Regulation 14A, involving the election of directors, which is incorporated
herein by reference and will be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") not later than 120 days after the close of Fluor's

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



16
17
10.21 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 shareholders) 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 of the Company 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, 1997, 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:




RESTRICTED SUPPLEMENTAL
STOCK BENEFIT
INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP PLANS(1) PLAN(2)

change of control.
