Jacobs Engineering Group says it received a contract from Shell in India to build an integrated organization with Shell’s project design office in Bangalore, India.

Officials did not disclose the contract value. They noted that the contract duration is five years with provision for further extension.

The integrated project design organization expects to deliver a full range of engineering and design services for onshore upstream (oil and gas) and downstream major capital projects, mainly in the Middle Eastern and Far Eastern regions, the companies said.

The new organization aims to blend the strong technical and engineering design capability held by Shell and Jacobs, while optimizing the best work processes and tools of both companies, they said.

Jacobs vice president Allyn Taylor said: "This assignment further advances the long and successful relationship between our two companies. We are committed to delivering a high level of service and value to help Shell continue to excel in the marketplace."

Shell's projects and technology organization provides technical services and technology capability in upstream and downstream activities and manages the delivery of major projects for Shell around the world, as well as supporting Shell's interests in India, it said.
