BATON ROUGE, La., Jul 14, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- SGR | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- The Shaw Group Inc. (NYSE: SGR | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) today announced the Maintenance Division of its Power Group has been awarded a maintenance, modifications, packaging and small capital construction contract by Lion Copolymer to service its two plants in Geismar, La.

The value of Shaw's three-year contract, which was included in the company's third quarter fiscal year 2009 backlog of unfilled orders, was not disclosed.

"We are excited about our new relationship with Lion Copolymer to provide maintenance and related services in Louisiana," said Ron McCall, president of Shaw's Maintenance Division. "We are confident our value-added services will help meet overall performance goals."
