ABERDEEN, UK — RAM Tubulars has opened a new 16-acre decommissioning and metal recycling complex at Birchwood, eastern Scotland.

Onsite equipment includes an industrial weighbridge, pipe washing system and storage area, and a heavy reinforced impermeable concrete yard with a closed loop drainage system.
RAM Tubulars NORM handling permit allows for its radiation protection supervisors to handle hazardous and contaminated materials.
