FEBRUARY 17, 1998 American Eco's Turner Group Adds $26.5 Million to Backlog HOUSTON, TEXAS--Michael E. McGinnis, Chairman, President and CEO of AMERICAN ECO CORPORATION announced that its Port Arthur based subsidiary, Action Contract Services has added USD$26.5 million to its contract backlog for maintenance services. The contracts include ongoing storage tank maintenance at several Texas based plants of Huntsman Petrochemical Corporation, and general maintenance work for Olin Corp., in Beaumont, Texas. The Turner Group's other subsidiary, C.A. Turner currently performs the general maintenance work at four additional plant sites. The Turner operation formed the basis for American Eco's move into industrial and maintenance services when American Eco acquired it in November of 1993. Turner provides field maintenance services, industrial construction and pipe fabrication to customers throughout the southwestern U.S. Michael E. McGinnis, Chairman, President and CEO of American Eco, states, "The fact that the Turner Group through the combined actions of C.A. Turner and Action in providing services to Huntsman and Olin, exemplifies American Eco's commitment to the "single source" concept when servicing our clients." American Eco is a leading North American provider of single-source construction, management, maintenance, specialty fabrication, engineering and environmental remediation services in the refining, petrochemical, utility, forest products and offshore manufacturing industries. -30-

One message is repeated below.....
