Good day, and welcome to Fluor Corporation's Third Quarter Earnings Conference Call. Today's call is being recorded. [Operator Instructions] A replay of today's conference call will be available at approximately 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time today, accessible on Fluor's website at www.fluor.com. The web replay will be available for 30 days. A telephone replay will also be available through 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time on November 5 at the following telephone number: (888) 203-1112. The passcode of 5937050 will be required. At this time, for opening remarks, I would like to turn the call over to Ken Lockwood, Vice President of Investor Relations. Please go ahead, Mr. Lockwood.

Thanks very much, operator, and welcome, everyone, to Fluor's Third Quarter 2014 Conference Call. With us today are David Seaton, Fluor's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; and Biggs Porter, Fluor's Chief Financial Officer. Our earnings announcement was released this afternoon after the market closed, and we have posted a slide presentation on our website, which we will reference while making prepared remarks. Before getting started, I'd like to refer you to our safe harbor note regarding forward-looking statements, which we have summarized on Slide 2. During today's call and slide presentation we will be making forward-looking statements, which reflect our current analysis of existing trends and information. There is an inherent risk that actual results and experience could differ materially. You can find a discussion of our risk factors, which could potentially contribute to such differences in the company's Form 10-Q, which was filed earlier today. Also, during this call, we may discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these amounts with the comparable GAAP measures are reflected in our earnings release and posted in the Investor Relations section of our website at investor.fluor.com. So with that, I will turn the call over to David Seaton, Fluor's Chairman and CEO. David?

Thanks, Ken. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. I'm pleased to report that we had a very good quarter, including strong earnings, significant new awards and growth in backlog. On today's call, we'll review these results, our guidance for the balance of '14 as well as talk about our initial guidance for 2015. If you'll turn to Slide 3, I want to begin by covering some of the highlights from the third quarter. Net earnings attributable to Fluor from continuing operations were $183 million or $1.15 per diluted share, which compares with $173 million or $1.05 per diluted share a year ago. Our consolidated segment profit for the quarter was $335 million, which was an 8% increase from $311 million a year ago. The growth in segment profit results was primarily driven by a 65% increase in Oil & Gas, reflecting very strong performance. As expected, Oil & Gas margins declined slightly from last quarter as project execution on existing projects increased, but we're still at a very strong 5.5%. Consolidated revenue for the quarter was $5.4 billion, which is down from $6.7 billion a year ago, but again mainly due to significantly lower revenues in Mining & Metals business. Oil & Gas revenues increased 15% over last quarter as existing projects and backlog transitioned from a detailed engineering phase into the field and construction, as construction gets underway. New awards for the quarter were strong at $6 billion, including $4.5 billion in Oil & Gas, $700 million in Government, $460 million in Industrial & Infrastructure and $382 million in Power. Consolidated backlog at the quarter end rose to $42.3 billion, which is up 16% from $36.5 billion a year ago. Our financial results are summarized on Table 4, and I'll continue my remarks on Slide…

Thanks, David. Good afternoon, everyone. Please turn to Slide 8 of the presentation. I'll start by providing a few comments on our third quarter performance then move to the balance sheet. As expected, overall revenue for the quarter was down fairly significantly year-over-year, mainly due to the continued falloff in mining activity. Oil & Gas revenue improved 12% compared to last year and increased 15% over last quarter. While we continue to execute a substantial amount of higher margin FEED activity in Oil & Gas, large projects are starting to move into the field, which will generate higher revenue and cause the margin on a percent basis to moderate. Industrial & Infrastructure revenue continued to contract. This contraction, along with successful project closeouts in Mining & Metals and favorable project execution performance from infrastructure, contributed a strong margin in the -- margins in the quarter. Turning to Slide 9. Corporate G&A expenses for the third quarter were $35 million, down from $46 million a year ago. The decrease was mainly due -- or mainly the result of lower stock price-driven compensation costs. The effective tax rate in the third quarter was approximately 33%, an increase from the 29% tax rate a year ago. The lower 2013 rate was due to U.S. federal tax research credits, which were not extended beyond 2013. We expect our tax rate for the remainder of 2014 to be between 32% and 33%. Please turn to Slide 10. Before I move to the balance sheet, I want to provide an update on discontinued operations with regard to the Doe Run lead business, which the company sold in 1994. In October, we entered into a settlement agreement with counsel for a number of plaintiffs who had filed lawsuits against the company. As a result, in the third…

[Operator Instructions] And we'll take our first question from Jamie Cook with Crédit Suisse. Jamie L. Cook - Crédit Suisse AG, Research Division: I guess a couple of questions. First, David, I know you don't like questions on guidance within guidance, but I'll ask it anyway because last year, you sort of set yourself up for it. When you guided last year, you said earnings should be sort of back-end-weighted versus first half. And as I look at the guidance today, I'm just trying to get a feel for how you're thinking about guidance. Should we expect earnings growth each quarter? Is it more back-end loaded? And then the second question to that would be, over the past couple of years when you've guided, you've tended to hit the low end of your range versus the historic Fluor, which has tended to sort of be in raise [ph], and I feel like your margins are finally coming through. Your revenue is trying to -- finally, growth is starting to come through on the Oil & Gas side, which makes me hopeful the low end of your range is probably fairly conservative. And then my last question is on I&I. The margins in -- throughout the year have been fairly impressive, and I know there were some -- in the third quarter, you had some closeouts and you had favorable mix, but I'm just trying to think about sustainable margins in I&I on a go-forward basis. Is the 6% range the way to think about it with Mining now a smaller percent of the total?

Thanks, Jamie. You're right, I don't like giving guidance within the guidance. I could give you a smart answer and say that I'm hoping that our SG&A is significantly higher in the following quarters because our stock price is much higher and the related executive compensation follows. But I think in terms of where we are, I'd go back to what I told you guys the last couple of quarters. We're in the early stages of, I think, a very long, very large cycle in Oil & Gas. I do believe that Mining and Infrastructure are poised to return as we get through next year. So I guess I'm not going to say it's back-end loaded, but I think that it's going to be fairly normal throughout the year. I'll ask Biggs to kind of give a little bit of color on that, particularly around I&I.

Yes. So as David said, it's normal, but in a growth period, normal would mean that it's going to go up as we go through the year. So I don't think that should surprise anybody that it will be a progression. The guidance is a guidance. I don't think it makes sense to be more qualitative about it, kind of a question in the middle there. But with respect to the I&I margin, it definitely was high for the quarter. Somewhat a numerator and denominator concern or phenomenon because revenues have gone down with Mining. But we had good performance on Mining projects as they close out, and we had very good performance on Infrastructure projects. So clearly a high-level income relative to revenue led to the higher margins. I think that going forward, it obviously is early going into the year. But I think probably, we should expect more the 4% to 5% kind of levels as opposed to 6%. But with good performance, certainly, there's an opportunity to do better than that. Jamie L. Cook - Crédit Suisse AG, Research Division: I guess just last question, and I promise I'll get back in queue, David. When I think about your bookings within Oil & Gas, they've been fairly impressive, considering you've been booking work cost-plus, relative to some of your peers, who were booking work fixed price. So how do I think about the profitability of the stuff you're putting in backlog, given that you're still booking it cost-plus and the market is still fairly competitive? I mean, is it customers are wanting the higher-end contract? Or is it what you've alluded to before, Fluor has a better mousetrap today relative to where you were before so your margins are better? Just some color there and then I'll get back in queue.

I think you answered my question -- your own question. Jamie L. Cook - Crédit Suisse AG, Research Division: See how smart I am?

I'm telling you, it's amazing. I think I'd stick with what I've said. We continue to improve the quality of margin and backlog. I can't speak to what our competition's doing, but I can speak to the fact that we're winning a fair amount of work and the quality is improving. So you can figure out what that means. We will end up booking some fixed-price projects as we get into next year that will be sizable. And I feel very confident about the execution approach to deliver the profitability at the end of the day. And again, I think it will be improving margin and backlog.

And we'll take our next question from Andrew Kaplowitz with Barclays.

David, so going -- looking at the Oil & Gas market, I mean, obviously, you watch the same stuff we do. Maybe you can step back and talk about your confidence level in today's Oil & Gas market, in the sense that do you still feel very confident that you can maintain or grow Oil & Gas backlog over the next year or so? And what do your customers say, especially some of the guys who are maybe in the higher cost areas, about places like the oil sands and stuff when we see this kind of volatility?

That's a great question, Andy. The -- I think that we will continue to book in the face of what we see. But just from a perspective standpoint, if you look back 3, 4 years ago, we were at $80 oil then. And if you compare then with now and CapEx spend with those major Oil & Gas customers then and now, it's pretty consistent. Now some of the marginal players -- maybe some of the non-integrateds might have a little bit more issues than the integrateds, but I think they'll trim in some areas. But the things that we're focused on, they need to maintain either reserve replacement or to maintain market share. And any kind of fuel or derivative chemical product is there. Low oil prices and low gas prices obviously makes people like Sasol happy. So I think that continues as well. We have not seen our customers run to the doors, so to speak, relative to their capital plans. I think it's business as usual, with maybe a little more scrutiny on some of the marginal projects that are out there. But the things that we're chasing, I feel -- I have great confidence in them continuing to go and those that are in front of us to reach FID. I feel pretty good about where we stand. But from a perspective standpoint, I don't think it dropping from $100 a barrel to $80-something a barrel markedly changes our customers' spending behaviors, particularly now when they're focused more on capital efficiency. And we're lined up for that. So I think even in a tighter market, I think it puts us in a better position, actually.

And to be clear though, David, even at $26 billion and change of backlog in Oil & Gas, do you still feel like it can grow over the next year, even with burn rates increasing?

Yes.

Okay, that's good. So David, this might be for Biggs, but if you can chime in, that's great, too. When we look at your new '15 guidance, I mean, you have a few businesses that need to turn from what they've been doing over the last couple of years, especially I&I when we look at revenue. And I keep thinking it might stabilize in terms of revenue, but you look at the backlog and it's still down, obviously, very significantly. So what should give us conviction in the statement that Biggs made that revenue should rise in all of the segments? I'd say I'd single out I&I and Government as 2 segments that I worry about a little bit.

Well, talk about those 2 specifically, I mean, from a revenue backlog standpoint, I&I is really driven by Mining. And we are beginning the early stages of the next wave. There's some big programs that maybe took a little bit of hiatus that are being dusted off. But again, I think it's sometime mid-next year before we start to see any action there. On Government, honestly, filling up what we earned and burned on LOGCAP is going to be a hard road. So I don't see Government's backlog necessarily increasing over the near term. But I think with Oil & Gas, the start back of mining a few other things that we're doing. Power is a great story with some of the wins that they've got. Even though this quarter, it appears that their backlog is marginally down over last quarter, we still see growth there as well. So just kind of some color. So I don’t know, Biggs, if you'd like to follow on that.

Well, I think you got it all right. One thing I'd add on, on Government, if you look at margins, their margins are pretty low in the first half of this year, improved in the third quarter on project performance. And we would expect the first half of next year certainly to be at a better margin performance level than the first half of this year. So that alone gives you some lift on Government. I think David's right on everything else that he said. I think, that we -- consistently with what I said in early September, that through the second half of this year, we saw those businesses forming fairly flat, but then we'd be able to improve from there. So I think that's what we're looking for.

So Biggs, is it fair to say that I&I revenue could stabilize at current levels from 3Q?

I don't want to get too specific. I think I just want to say there is opportunity for them to continue to improve, certainly, on the bottom line. On revenue, I'd look for possibly a dip initially as we continue to transition out of some of the old for mining work but then maybe go up from there.

And we'll take our next question from Robert Connors with Stifel. Robert V. Connors - Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, Research Division: Fluor's done a pretty good job, and you guys have done a pretty good job in the U.S., pretty much splitting the U.S. cracker market. You guys won 3. So just wondering, going forward in the U.S., what else you guys are possibly looking at? Is there more downstream petrochemical work as well as to get a flavor of what type of projects and -- are out there on the Oil & Gas side, internationally speaking? I know you gave us a geographic breakdown but just trying to get a flavor of particularly what end markets.

Well, in the U.S., it's pretty broad. And I wouldn't -- I would also add Power to the U.S. story as well as Infrastructure to the story in the out-years. Clearly, I remember sitting in this call 4, 5, 6 years ago and saying that maybe 1, maybe 2 crackers will be built in the United States, and now there's 2 or 3 more that are -- that really have merit that we're pursuing right now. So I think there's still more to come there. I think there's a significant amount of refining work coming. We feel good about a couple of projects that we're already working on, on the front-end, some of the front-end pre-FID things that look very, very positive. So I think the U.S. has still got a lot of headroom over the next couple of years, clearly, from a new award perspective and then, obviously, for the next 2 to 3 from an earnings perspective. So I'm a little bit bullish on the United States. I don't think the peak is going to be as high as maybe we expected a couple of years ago, which really put a hard -- really put craft labor in a hard spot. But we feel like we're in a pretty good position on craft resources and being able to deliver those projects. So I feel pretty good about where we are in the U.S. Canada continues to be a great market for us as evidenced by the oil sands work that we continue to do. But then you look outside the United States, Latin America is a growth area for us, particularly Mexico. I think in Southeast Asia, there's more work, obviously, than just the Petronas project that we were awarded. But that's from China, Sakhalin all the way down into Southeast Asia I think are growth markets. The Middle East still continues to be a great place for us, and there's significant opportunity there as well as Southern Africa, both on the South and Eastern sides of the continent. So I think that everybody, over the last few years, has kind of salivated over the U.S. market. It's important. But from Fluor's perspective, it's only one piece of the pie for us. So like I say, I mean, we're a global company and have global reach, and that gives us access to a lot of capital spend. Robert V. Connors - Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, Research Division: Okay, great. And then I guess for my follow-up, just on the equipment business. Just trying to get a flavor of when you expect the timing to sort of roll over from the Afghanistan work and mining work and when we'll start to see that reflected on the ramp in Oil & Gas.

Well, we're just starting to go to the field on a couple of projects in the U.S. with several more to come. So I think we’re sometime next year when it kind of flattens out. I mean, we had a lot of business in Afghanistan for both -- primarily for other than Fluor, which took a bigger hit in Afghanistan relative to the forward operating base shutdowns and which assets actually stayed operating. So that was -- it's almost like the decline in Government is more exaggerated in our equipment business. But I tell you, it's a solid business and it's part of that critical path we need relative to having the equipment tools and things we need to build these things. So I believe that there are probably -- 20% of AMECO's business right now is actually Fluor work. I think that will shift dramatically as we get through next year.

And we'll hear next from Steven Fisher with UBS.

David, can you just comment on how the execution is going on your fixed-price projects right now?

Pretty good. I feel really good about where we stand. I mean, it's got the normal puts and takes as any project does, but I feel really good about where we are at this stage of the game on our fixed-price projects.

Okay. So no concerns there, it sounds like.

Remember, it's only 18% of our backlog.

Okay. And Biggs, how are you thinking about cash flow in Q4 and in 2015? And what are your latest thoughts about what to do with your international cash?

Okay. On the first question, as I said, there were some timing matters with respect to cash in the third quarter. As a matter of fact, I say that -- I always say that cash in any particular quarter can be heavily influenced by timing when you have really large receipts that come in right before the quarter end or a little bit afterwards. I think that the fourth quarter should be certainly better than the third quarter, absent some other timing phenomenon just hitting. As to 2015, I think, and going out to the [indiscernible], I expect a fairly normal relationship between cash and earnings. I think that with respect to international cash, there's no real change in philosophy. We've always said there could be some inefficiency associated with repatriation. It's kind of a country-by-country matter, and it gets fairly complex. There's no simple answer there. But we always just have to take that into consideration when we look at how we move money around the world or when we make determinations about how much excess we might have.

Okay. And maybe one last quick one. What have you guys assumed for the Chevron Kitimat, your guidance for next year?

We really don't guide project by project. But I can tell you that we are where we thought we would be.

We'll take our next question from Alex Rygiel with FBR. Alexander J. Rygiel - FBR Capital Markets & Co., Research Division: David, in I&I, what needs to develop for some of the larger projects to move forward that you mentioned in the second half of 2015?

We're starting to see -- there is some improving -- improvement in some of the commodity markets. At least most of them feel that they've bottomed. And I think you've got some of the bigger mining companies that are looking at when things turn, it's all about who can put it on the water. And it's those big companies that are kind of revisiting copper, iron ore, a couple of other commodities, but mostly those 2. So the dialogue and the discussion in the FEED projects and the actual committing funds to get back in the game is prevalent right now. So again, I think we see some things moving as we get towards the second half of next year. Alexander J. Rygiel - FBR Capital Markets & Co., Research Division: And secondly, can you update us on what the bid timeline is for the Kuwait refinery project? And then as it relates to Mozambique, it looks like Anadarko is having some success with a few supply deals. Has the timing of that project moved forward at all?

Well, Anadarko first. No, I think we're on the normal schedule of them choosing a contractor in the first quarter of next year. We feel really good about our position, and we'll continue to track that very closely. With regard to KNPC, they delayed the bid submittals until the end of the year. So we're probably mid-year before any of those packages are awarded, mid-year 2015.

And we'll take our next question from Vishal Shah with Deutsche Bank.

Just curious if you have seen any change at all in the competitive landscape in either the Oil & Gas or the I&I business.

Not really. I mean, I think -- well, let me back up. In Oil & Gas, I don't think I've seen a whole lot. I mean, it's a very competitive market, and I'm very pleased with our ability to compete in that difficult market. I think we're still -- I mean, when you think about I&I, you kind of got to break it into Mining & Metals and Infrastructure. In Mining & Metals, for the very, very large projects, I mean, obviously, they're competitive, but there's very few companies that can actually do some of that stuff. But in Infrastructure, particularly in the United States, it's extremely competitive. And we've had this dialogue before, and I really don't mean this to be an arrogant statement because I really don't mean it this way, but we have the ability to say no to some of the things that our competition can't say no to in terms of pricing and profit expectation because that's really the only segment that they chase and we can put people someplace else. So we're keeping our powder dry. We're being very diligent in the projects that we choose to chase and very diligent in how we bid them. It is very, very competitive. But as far as delivery relative to the PPP market in the United States, I don't think there's anybody better than Fluor.

That's helpful. And maybe can you talk about what percentage of your backlog in Oil & Gas is related to oil sands, directionally, how it's trending over the next [indiscernible] quarters?

I wouldn't go into giving you a specific percentage, but it's not dramatic.

We'll take our next question from Jerry Revich with Goldman Sachs.

David, can you say more about the prospect list in the Middle East, Asia and Mexico, what end markets and project size to the extent you're comfortable fleshing those out for us?

Well, I think in Mexico, obviously, it's the Oil & Gas sector, to a lesser degree, petrochemicals, a little bit of Power. Latin America is basically the same mix. In the Middle East, it's all over the board from Infrastructure programs to offshore Oil & Gas, onshore Oil & Gas, petrochemicals, some Power. We feel pretty good about our position in the Middle East, but as I said, all of those areas have some pretty robust capital plans in front of us and I think we're pretty well positioned in all areas.

Okay. And then in the U.S., can you just update us on the timing of contractor selection on Lake Charles LNG? Has that shifted around at all? And has FID moved around at all?

No. It's still next year.

Okay. And lastly on the prospect list in the U.S. for I&I for the PPP projects. Can you talk about how visibility has evolved over the past quarter? Any changes? It sounds like you might be more optimistic this quarter than the last. But let me ask that question directly.

Well, I think we had a flurry of them. If you go back to the beginning of the year and it's kind of settled out. I wouldn't say that we're heavily into the bidding cycle in some of these things. But when you look at what's in front of us, it's a mid-to-late next year kind of thing from a bid perspective. So again, when you think about our portfolio, we just keep layering things on top. And when we get into '16, I think it'll be back and a good contributor.

We'll take our next question from Yuri Lynk with Canaccord Genuity.

Most of my questions have been answered. I just have a couple of housekeeping items. Just on the SG&A, obviously, a big decline, I understand there's some stock-based comp in there. But would any of that decline be due to the restructuring initiatives you put in, in Oil & Gas to kind of flatten the organization?

I think some of it is, but I think the real benefit of that is probably in the out-years. We've really changed the game here. And I feel good about where we are from a cost-competitive perspective. Biggs, I don't know if you want to add any color to that.

No, I think that's accurate. There's benefits in there, but there's also still some costs associated with doing it as well. So I think the big driver is the comp expense being down on the lower share price.

Okay, got it. And Biggs, while I have you, how much is left on the buyback at present?

How many shares are left authorized?

Yes.

I think it's 9 million -- 8 million or 9 million. I'd have to look exactly.

That's close enough for me.

We'll take our next question from Sameer Rathod with Macquarie.

A couple of questions here. What -- obviously, pretty volatile oil market. But in your mind, what do oil prices have to do and how long do they have to do them before the market cools down a bit here in North America or globally?

I kind of talked about that earlier. It's all a matter of perspective. I think that a moderating -- it's interesting. You look at one report. It says that oil is going to hit $70 and now quarters before it returns to $80. And another one leads us to $100 a barrel again in the near term. So it's somewhere in there. I think the commodity -- those commodity markets will drive them. But again, the CapEx of our customers and their eagerness to spend that on reserve replacement and product improvements didn't wane when it was at $80 or $70 the last time, and I don't expect it to this time. But just like anything else, I mean, if you have a dramatic drop, and I wouldn't even venture a guess as to what dramatic -- how you define dramatic, would have lots of people at least taking a deep breath. But my experience -- I've been here 30 years, my experience says that, that deep breath is measured in quarters, not years.

Right, absolutely. I guess my next question is on the cost inflation in the Gulf. I know you said that you feel pretty good about the craft labor component. Are there specific specialties or anything that you're starting to see tightness in? Or have you seen a pickup in labor costs in the region? That's it for me.

Well, from a big projects perspective, and where we are from an execution standpoint, the 2 that stand out to me right now is the Dow project, PDH program as well as CPChem. We have not seen -- well, the labor costs are equal to what we thought they would be. The only tightness I would say is in welders. And we've beefed up our training program and actually have started a training school in the Houston area. So we think we'll be in a pretty good place relative to new people entering the market and the skills that they're going to need to be successful. So with things kind of moving around last year, early this year, from a timing perspective, I think it really dampened the issue that was out in front of us. And I think because we're kind of the first in the field on these projects, we're going to have -- we're going to create a better following on -- for the out projects and be able to maintain those resources over the longer term, if that makes sense.

And we'll take our next question from Andy Wittmann with Baird. Andrew J. Wittmann - Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Research Division: Biggs, I wanted to start with you and just get some more detail on some of the items in the quarter. And specifically, you did mention that there was some closeouts in the I&I segment. I was hoping you could clarify those. As well as we noticed there was at least some gains either from equipment sales and/or the exit from joint ventures. I was hoping you could give us the magnitude of those and what segments, if they are shown in the segment they appeared in.

I think it's a little finite to go into each and every project and talk about its effect. The -- as I said before, there's always going to be a certain amount of closeout activity, there's always going to be a certain number of adjustments on projects, positive and negative. And I just try to give you some flavor for whether or not they drive the margin rates in any particular quarter relative to the norm when we give those kind of comments about a particular group being possibly influenced by project performance or closeouts. So I don't think -- it just doesn't make sense trying to quantify. It's really more judgmental in its nature. And you're right, as we come -- as to -- on the AMECO side, as we come out of any project or come out of Afghanistan, there is going to be favorable profit typically because we are able to realize gain on sales. That's a normal phenomenon. It happens every quarter. And in this case, coming out of Afghanistan, it did have a little bit more than average effect in the quarter. Andrew J. Wittmann - Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Research Division: Okay, that's helpful. And then just because we all love pension accounting so much, I thought I'd dig into that a little bit. The -- is this -- was this a plan that was -- are you not accepting new entrants for? Or is this a buyout of all existing pensioners in the plan? And then you mentioned that it doesn't have a cash cost. Is that -- presumably, that's because you're just shutting down the plan, not actually buying folks out. But maybe some detail on that would be helpful.

Well, it's -- the answer to your first question really is both. The plan was frozen to new entrants several years ago. But what we're doing now is basically settling our obligations to all those participants. They can either take a lump sum or they get an annuity in return for the settlement. But they make those decisions out in the future after it has regulatory approval. As to the cash aspect of it, the plan is fully funded. If you look at it from an actuarial standpoint today, there is still going to be some cash costs, depending upon the elections that the participants make. Not to get even more technical about it, but we don't expect that additional cash cost to be significant, as we said. Andrew J. Wittmann - Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Research Division: That's helpful. And then can you talk about the impact that this is going to have in your '15 guidance on a year-over-year basis in the SG&A line?

The -- as we said, it's not really estimable at this point in time. The only thing that we can really point to is that it will trigger the recognition of what's previously been unrecognized prior service and actuarial costs, which is -- sits in OCI and that amounts to $160 million before tax. So we know we'll be taking the charge for that. But how much additional charge there is depends upon the final decisions made by all the participants and whether it's lump sum or annuities and a whole bunch of other variables. Andrew J. Wittmann - Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Research Division: Okay. But in terms of just cost savings, though, I guess, is the angle that I was trying to [indiscernible] out there.

Savings, I'm sorry. Going forward, it's an excess of $10 million a year. Some of it, as I said, is we don't pay some of the administrative costs anymore in PBGC premiums. But also importantly, I think everybody expects PBGC premiums to be going up over time. So the savings probably grow if you think of it that way because we will be avoiding those future increases. Andrew J. Wittmann - Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Research Division: Indeed. Maybe last question for David. I think you highlighted that Russia was a driver in an upstream project of your Oil & Gas segment. I'm just kind of curious as to what you're thinking, how you're planning for, if you're planning for, the potential for U.S. sanctions to go deeper and how that can affect that part of the business.

What's under sanctions doesn't impact us at the moment, to your point. Who knows what deeper sanctions mean? But given where we are on most things we're chasing and everything else, I'm not too concerned about it at this point.

And we'll take our next question from John Rogers with D.A. Davidson Investment Bank. John B. Rogers - D.A. Davidson & Co., Research Division: David, just a little clarity. In terms of your backlog now within your Oil & Gas segment, how would you break it out between upstream and downstream work? And then on the I&I side between Mining and Infrastructure, Metals & Mining?

From a backlog standpoint, I'd say upstream, downstream is probably close to 50-50, when you consider that I put petrochemicals in the downstream bucket. As far as Mining and Infrastructure, that's a hard one based on where we are, but it typically is 2 to 1 Mining over Infrastructure. That's probably a fair assessment right now. And then it grows from there when the big programs go in. John B. Rogers - D.A. Davidson & Co., Research Division: Okay. That's where it is now. The Mining is still that order of magnitude.

Right. John B. Rogers - D.A. Davidson & Co., Research Division: Okay. And then just in terms of the Global Services business, smaller segment, but will that ramp up with the revenue on the Oil & Gas side pretty substantially?

It will ramp up. I don't know about -- how you define substantially, but I think it's going to be flat for the first part of this cycle because you've got a decrease from Afghanistan hitting AMECO as an example before we really start to ramp up on the Oil & Gas side. So I think probably flat for next year but improving margin in that business. Our Temporary Staffing business follows 1 to 1 what we do in engineering. So yes, as we ramp up on Oil & Gas backlog or burning the backlog, that should improve. John B. Rogers - D.A. Davidson & Co., Research Division: Okay. And then just last, I guess mainly for Biggs. In terms of the settlements on the Doe Run, when does that cash flow out?

As I said, it's only when we get releases from the plaintiffs, and so the timing’s going to be based upon that.

We'll take our next question from Michael Dudas with Sterne Agee. Michael S. Dudas - Sterne Agee & Leach Inc., Research Division: David, I won't ask you to predict the outcome of next Tuesday's election in the U.S. But...

I thought you were going to ask me to predict the Cowboys-Giants game. Michael S. Dudas - Sterne Agee & Leach Inc., Research Division: No, I just want to make sure you haven't bought your Super Bowl tickets yet.

After Monday, no. I put that on hold. Michael S. Dudas - Sterne Agee & Leach Inc., Research Division: I figured as such. But if the consensus holds and the Republicans take over the Senate, is there anything from a legislative or regulatory issue that could help the velocity of some even more permitting or more opportunities for the business that you see in the United States?

Comprehensive tax reform and comprehensive immigration reform. I mean, I'm telling you, if we can get those 2 things right, given the momentum that's behind this economy, and get the regulators out of the way or at least not creating new obstacles, the American economy will be on fire again. I am so optimistic that -- well, I'm not optimistic. I'm so sure in that statement. There are so many question marks out there, whether it's the EPA situation with the Power guys, whether it's the regulators on the moratorium on export of oil products. If we can get the government to work with us and look at the job creation that's there, you look at the tax revenues, even at a lower rate, that can be generated by a growing economy, we wouldn't have -- we wouldn't be talking about the deficit problems and all the financial problems the United States have. But with that, I'll get off my soapbox. You got another question? Michael S. Dudas - Sterne Agee & Leach Inc., Research Division: No, I think that's fine.

Michael, no kidding. I've been very vocal about this. As a member of the BRT and some of the other -- the National Association of Manufacturers, where I'm an executive board member, we got -- we can fix this, but there needs to be some rational thinking in Washington. And that is not a partisan comment because both sides of the aisle are part of the problem. Michael S. Dudas - Sterne Agee & Leach Inc., Research Division: Duly noted. Do you think you still can be helped here?

I don't know. But I think what you're seeing is the Canadians looking elsewhere and the U.S. trying to figure it out without it. I wouldn't predict on -- I wouldn't give odds on that one right now.

We'll take our next question from Justin Ward with Wells Fargo.

Just a few on the Oil & Gas backlog. Obviously, it's very impressive at over 2x your Q3 revenue run rate. Can you give us a sense of how much of that $26 billion of backlog is expected to be completed in the next 12 months?

Very little. Like I said, we're kind of on the beginning phases of a growth curve. I mean, you've got some projects that are finishing up like BP Whiting, a few other big programs. But we're kind of in the early innings, if you will, on that backlog.

Okay. And so I guess considering it's pretty extended over the next few years, is there a sense of how much of that Oil & Gas backlog is potentially at risk if oil kind of stays in this $80 range? Or are you guys expecting all that to go forward regardless?

We're pretty conservative on how we take in projects in the backlog. I'm very confident about what's in backlog. If it were -- if oil prices were to drop significantly, I would be concerned about future awards but not what's in our backlog.

Okay, great. And then just one more. This earnings season, as we listen to all your Oil & Gas customers' earnings calls, there's a lot of discussion about expectations of kind of using the lower oil price environment to be more aggressive and getting some deflation -- some cost deflation from their supply chain. In light of that commentary, do you guys expect negotiations to become a bit more aggressive going forward if oil doesn't rebound in the next 6 months or so? And how do you guys generally prepare for that?

I don't see any difference in our oil customers. If the price was $200 a barrel, they would still be as difficult as if it's at $80 a barrel. It's never easy from a negotiation standpoint. They're always looking for better capital efficiency. And I think the thing this time that I feel I have confidence in is we kind of changed how we approach the market. That solution-driven total project approach is something that the customer is interested in, and we're competitive. One of the questions earlier was about how we feel about our lump sum projects. Well, we've competed in some pretty difficult markets head to head with global competitors, have won and I still feel very good about where we stand on those projects that are fixed price as well as the ones that are reimbursable. So not really a specific answer, but we can compete regardless of what the oil price is. And our friends in the oil industry are always difficult, very tough negotiators.

And we'll take our last question from Tahira Afzal with KeyBanc.

I just about made it. So I guess I had 2 quick questions. Number one, David, how do you feel about some of the NAFTA refineries coming back and becoming more economical? And if oil prices are around $80, $85, do you see some change in the dynamics marginally between the sort of ethane-based ones and NAFTA? That's my first question. And the second question is, David, a while back, you talked about self-perform. I've seen you guys book PMC rules on some pretty big scopes. Would you look at taking some risk on the self-perform side at this point given the craft labor issues seeming less pronounced? And would that potentially present more margin upside for you in the medium to longer term?

Well, controlling construction is part of our strategy, whether it's through our own resources or otherwise. But I'd point you to 2 projects in the Gulf Coast now. One is CPChem, which is lump sum turnkey utilizing fluid craft. And the other’d be in the Dow Gulfstream project, which is PDH and the cracker. So we're already way down that road and feel very good about our position there. But I want to make sure you understand, that does not mean that we're going to direct hire every project around the world. So you look at -- I may be putting words in your mouth. I'm expecting that you're talking about Petronas when you talk about PMC. We're probably not going to do direct hire in Malaysia, but we will in the U.S., we will in Canada, we do in some places in the Middle East. We obviously do in Latin America. We obviously do in the Southern part of Africa already. So I don't see it as a change. I just see it as appropriate implementation of our overall construction strategy. I feel really good about where we stand there. Not to say that there won't be some pinch points in certain crafts, in certain regions just from a skill set standpoint, but we've got plans in place and training opportunities in place for people to where I think we'll stay reasonably ahead of the game. To your first question, I think it's a little too early to tell whether NAFTA creates a different wave of spending. I think most of these customers in their project cycles are a little bit further down the path to start questioning what the feedstock's going to be. So I think it's going to stay where it is at least in the near…

Thank you. And again, we appreciate your attending Fluor Corporation's Third Quarter Earnings Conference Call. This does conclude today's conference. And you may now disconnect.
