Bechtel Canada Co.'s Michael Hurley will be the keynote speaker at a Delta Chamber of Commerce luncheon next week.
FortisBC announced earlier this year it has selected Bechtel Canada Co. as the contractor for its Tilbury LNG expansion project. Fortis stated the expansion would better equip the utility to meet the growing LNG demands of B.C.'s transportation sector, remote communities, industrial customers and the marketplace.
Hurley and project director Chris John will provide an overview followed by breakout sessions on procurement and supplier development, according to the chamber's website.
The luncheon is set for Wednesday, Oct. 15 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Delta Town Country Inn.
It costs $35 for chamber members or $45 for nonmembers.
