                       Major Contract Award in Singapore 
 
Keller Group plc ("Keller" or "the Group"), the international ground 
engineering specialist, announces that it has been awarded a contract worth 
approximately GBP33m to construct foundations and related works for the new 
Sengkang hospital project in Singapore. 
 
Keller's contract is for the construction of a diaphragm wall and bored and 
secant piles.   The piling works, which make up the largest element of the 
contract, will be undertaken by Resource Piling, who will install more than 
2,500 piles of varying diameters. 
 
The overall project, for the Singapore Ministry of Health, will create an 
integrated general hospital, community hospital and specialist outpatient 
facilities, catering for more than 700,000 residents in the region. 
 
Keller's work is expected to commence next month and to complete in the third 
quarter of 2014. 
 
Justin Atkinson, Keller Chief Executive, commented: 
 
"This is the largest contract award to date for Resource Piling.   It is a good 
example of how the businesses we acquire are able, over time, to take on larger 
and more complex work, knowing they have the technical and financial backing of 
a strong, international parent. 
 
"Increasing our participation in major projects remains one of our key aims and 
we are delighted to have been selected to work at Sengkang."
