integrated Project Management team closely together with INA.
"We want to thank INA for their trust in choosing
us as a consultant services provider for their Residue Upgrade
Program", says Jarmo Suominen, CEO of Neste Jacobs. "This project
now awarded to us is a natural continuation to our chain of Project
Management Consultancy projects, which we have provided to our
customers with excellent results."
"As a company with a solid hands-on experience in

technology projects, Neste Jacobs was selected by INA for the
