0

Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., the Pasadena-based technical and construction services firm, announced today it hand landed four large contracts.


Jacobs was a member of the winning Science Applications International Corp. team that was selected to receive an engineering services contract from the Army’s Edgewood Chemical Biological Command. The team is one of four selected to work on the five-year, $100-million contract.


The contract provides engineering services, planning and training support in the areas of chemical and biological defense research, process and systems development, data management and testing, domestic preparedness and emergency response.


Jacobs received an architectural and engineering design services contract from the Army Corps of Engineers’ Nashville District. Officials did not disclose the value of the contract.


Jacobs has provided engineering and design services to the Army for over 50 years, the company said in a press release.


The third deal Jacobs announced Tuesday was that one of its subsidiary companies received a major environmental project as part of the Refinery Conversion Project at Petro-Canada’s refinery near Edmonton, Canada. This contract will help the refinery process bitumen-derived crude in place of the currently processed conventional crude slate. The value of the contract was not disclosed.


Jacobs also announced today that one of its Canadian subsidiaries landed a contract to engineer and build phase one of BA Energy Inc.’s Heartland Upgrader Project in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. To be built in three phases, the Upgrader will be capable of processing 226,000 barrels per day from the Athabasca oil sands. The first phase of the project is scheduled to be operating in 2007. Officials did not disclose the contract value.


Jacobs’ stock rose in Tuesday trading, moving up 1.4 percent to close at $46.48.
