United Kingdom

Bechtel has provided service to UK customers for more than half a century, designing and building projects including power plants, refineries, rail systems, and communication networks.

Our London office has taken a lead role in some of the UK's most important projects, including the Channel Tunnel and High Speed 1, the nation's first high-speed rail line.

Today we are working on the modernisation of the busy West Coast Main Line, as well as the renovation of three lines of the London Underground. A Bechtel-led team is also overseeing construction of a 21-kilometer tunnel that will be the centerpiece of Crossrail, a new railway connecting London to commuter areas east and west of the city.

Ongoing work also includes gas development, refinery, and liquefied natural gas projects in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. Current and recent projects include the Reliance Jamnagar Export project, partly engineered in London, which has taken the capacity of this Indian located refinery to 1.2 million barrels per day. Other projects include major gas processing facilities in Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia.
