Jacobs Engineering Group was awarded a contract from Solutia to provide engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCm) services for the Kuantan resin plant in Kuantan, Malaysia.
Officials did not disclose the contract value.
The companies noted that the project is scheduled to be completed in 2013.
