SHORE PORTERS COMPLETES BAKER HUGHES PERSONNEL RELOCATION PROJECT


9th November 2009

Aberdeen-based removal firm The Shore Porters’ Society has recently successfully completed a major project to relocate more than 200 employees of global oilfield service company, Baker Hughes, in Aberdeen.

The work involved the internal relocation of 178 personnel within Baker Hughes’ Stoneywood Park North, Dyce, office.

Shore Porters also moved 19 staff from the company’s Pitmedden Industrial Estate base, as well as five from its Farburn Industrial Estate office, to the Stoneywood Facility.

The project involved the implementation of a detailed removal plan, devised to ensure it was carried out with minimum disruption to the work and productivity of Baker Hughes’ Granite City team.

Completed over two days – Friday, August 7, and Saturday, August 8 – the project saw a team of ten Shore Porters staff utilise two lorries to complete the work, which involved the transporting of over 950 crates of items.

Euan Cuthbert, a partner with Shore Porters, hailed the project a great success.

He said: “We’re delighted, after detailed planning and preparation, to have completed this project so successfully. Considering the scope of the contract and the amount of work involved, we were required to execute this within a relatively short timeframe.

“However, working alongside the Baker Hughes facility team, we were able to deliver the project smoothly with the minimum amount of upheaval and disruption to the company’s operations.”

Baker Hughes has subsequently placed an additional order to relocate a further 100 staff within its group facilities.
