Turner is primarily building construction w/about $7B gross sales and
5,500 employees. Not really set up to rebuild the oil and public
infrastructure.
Fluor does work in the petroleum field as well as construction. Had
$13B gross in 2005 and has about 35,000 employees.
Haliburton services the petroleum industry and does general
construction. $21B gross in 2005 w/85,000 employees.
Which one would be better suited to the task of rebuilding a country's
infrastructure which includes oil wells, pipelines, roads, bridges,
buildings, etc?
