By SHERYL JEAN / The Dallas Morning News sjean@dallasnews.com

Irving-based Fluor Corp. said Tuesday that it has won a contract from LDK Solar Co. Ltd. for engineering, procurement and construction management services for $1 billion polysilicon plant in China.

Fluor booked the initial engineering and design work for the project in the third quarter of 2007, and the rest in the first quarter of this year.

The plant will be adjacent to LDK’s solar wafer manufacturing plant in Xinyu City, China, which is where LDK is based.

Construction began in August.

The three manufacturing lines are expected to be completed by July 2009.
