A spokesperson from the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office said the accident was the result of “some type of failure in the scaffolding system”.
Bechtel issued a statement saying construction had been paused at the site and that it would work with the authorities on an investigation.
It said: “All work at the site was immediately stopped following the incident, and we have sent all craft professionals home early to be with their families during this difficult time. Supporting those impacted and ensuring site safety remain our top priorities.”
Bechtel signed an EPC agreement for the project in 2018 and is currently working on phases one and two.
The first two trains of the project’s $10.5bn first phase are due to be completed in 2027 and 2028.
