Shell picks Jacobs for engineering on Canada mine
Jacobs Engineering Group received a five-year contract from Shell Canada for front-end engineering design, engineering, procurement, construction support, commissioning support and related services for the Jackpine Mine tailings and infrastructure program, officials said on Thursday.
The Jackpine Mine is one of two mines at Shell's Albian Sands site near Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada.
Officials did not disclose the contract value.
Jacobs will deliver a portfolio of projects involving conceptual engineering of new technologies to consolidate tailings and meet environmental requirements, it said.
"We are delighted to build on our previous success with Shell at the Albian Sands site and extend our services into environmental projects at the Jackpine Mine,” said Jacobs vice president Chip Mitchell.
“Our strength in portfolio management combined with our team's proven performance on tailings projects supports Shell in the responsible development of their oil sands assets."
