Bristol Babcock – East of Scotland Water

Our subsidiery, Estrada Promotions Limited, is happy to announce a six month project starting in January 1999 to create a design and specification (FDS) for the proposed new telemetry and SCADA (HMI) schemes for Loch Turret and Loch Lomond for East of Scotland Water and Bristol Babcock Limited (B.B.L.).

We have a fairly wide remit based around the design and implementation of a computerised and networked draughting system for both East of Scotland Water the Balmore Water Treatment Works in East Dunbartonshire and BBL of Kidderminster.

With manufacturing facilities and offices in the UK, USA and Canada and offices in Mexico, the Middle East, Australia, and China, Bristol Babcock Limited –as part of the F.K.I. Group — is an extremely well-known and highly respected international firm of electronic design engineers, manufacturers and contractors. Bristol Babcock products and technologies include remote terminal units, flow computers, transmitters, and distributed process controllers.

East of Scotland Water is one of only three nationalised water authorities in Scotland.

1999-08 Edit: Our Project Ref. 38, for both East of Scotland water and BBL, we produced Quality Procedures, CAD Manuals, and set up a comprehensive Electrical and Instrumentation (E&I) CAD symbols library. As Estrada, we also provided personnel to carry out surveys of the humdreds of kilometers of pipes and cisterns and we also worked closely with the client’s IT Department and with Bristol Babcock’s Project Management team to ensure the project’s complete success.

2002-04 Edit: In April 2002, East of Scotland Water Authority, West of Scotland Water Authority and North of Scotland Water Authority merged to provide a single, country-wide water authority: Scottish water.

2006-09 Edit: In March 2006, Bristol Babcock Limited was sold by FKI plc to Emerson in the USA for 121 million US Dollars, and renamed “Bristol”.
