In December 2005, CB&I was awarded a lump-sum turnkey contract for the design and construction of terminal system works at a new liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal in Fujian Province, Peoples Republic of China. This award followed a previous CB&I contract to build two 160,000 cubic meter full containment LNG storage tanks at the facility.

Located in the city of Putian, Fujian Province, in southeast China, the LNG regasification terminal has a Phase 1 capacity of 2.6 million tons of LNG per year with Phase II expansion under planning. The natural gas from the terminal will be provided to gas-fired power plants that will be built during the project's first phase and to household users in five cities in the province.

CB&I's work scope for this project included the turnkey engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning of the terminal systems works and two 160,000 cubic meter full containment LNG storage tanks. The system works encompass civil, mechanical, piping, structural, buildings, electrical and instrument work, the marine laoding arms and regasification system. The two LNG tanks include deep foundations, tank topsides and electrical and instrumentation, equipment and piping to grade.

The terminal was completed in early 2008. The project members achieved 7.5 million work-hours without a recordable incident
