Two Baker oil tools plants in Scotland – one at Bridge of Don near Aberdeen and the other at East Kilbride – manufacture down-hole completions and other equipment for export to oil fields around the world. Between them, the machine shops at both locations have over a hundred CNC and other types of machines and more than two-hundred operators dedicated to machining the pipes, valves and other equipment used in sub-sea applications. Castrol supplies both sites with metalworking fluids for machining a range of materials that includes stainless steels, carbon steels, and Inconel nickel and chrome-based special alloys.
