Wood Group said that it and Jacobs continue to work towards completion of the deal, which is expected later this month.
Wood announced last August that it had agreed to sell the nuclear business - which designs, delivers and maintains strategic and complex nuclear assets for customers primarily in the UK - for £250m in cash.
At 1220 GMT, the shares were up 3.8% at 373.50p.
